Yes, it happens everytime and yes it happens also with a newly created
user.

Yes. I always do a 'manual reboot' in terms of su -c "halt" or su -c
"reboot" as HAL doesn't do it for me :(.

Ok, I just re-used it as I had to use it before with the old HAL stuff.

Some more information:

I noticed my previously posted PolicyKit.conf was invalid XML by a
copy&paste mistake. After cleaning it(attached for reference) up I get:

[09:34] enrico at ukio (0): ~/src$ polkit-auth 
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.shutdown
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.shutdown-multiple-sessions
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.reboot
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.reboot-multiple-sessions
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.suspend
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.hibernate
org.freedesktop.hal.storage.unmount-others

[09:35] enrico at ukio (0): ~/src$ 

[09:35] enrico at ukio (0): ~/src$ polkit-action --action
org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.shutdown
action_id: org.freedesktop.hal.power-management.shutdown
description:      Shut down the system
message:          System policy prevents shutting down
the system
default_any:      no
default_inactive: no
default_active:   yes


I guess "message:          System policy prevents shutting down" is not
really what I want.

With an empty PolicyKit.conf I get no output at all from polkit-auth.

Self-compiled SVN version (currently the same as 4.6.1).
