Sorry, I'm a little late. This seems to be causing spurious wakeups
after shutdown on some systems just like v1 did. :/
Janne Boman reports[1], using an HP EliteBook 8530w:

Based on a quick web search, Heinz Wiesinger, using the same model,
ran into the same problem and bisected it to this patch:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44261
Janne confirmed the same by testing kernels closely based on 3.2.13
and 3.2.14 --- 3.2.13 shut down fine, while on 3.2.14 "shutdown -h
now" behaved roughly speaking like "reboot". A kernel close to 3.6.4
was also affected.
Known problem? An acpidump and kernel log can be found at [2].
Looking forward to your thoughts,
Jonathan

So is 3.6.6 still and issue? How about 3.7-rc4? 3.4.18? Figuring out
if this is still an issue in Linus's tree would be the best thing to do
first.
thanks,

I checked 3.7-rc4 and the issue is still there. Should I still test the other
versions as well? I can do so but it might take a bit.
If you need anything else, I'll be happy to help wherever I can.
Grs,
Heinz

No, that should be good enough, this needs to be fixed there first.

Working with the developers involved would be great. Anyone have any
patches that Heinz could test?

I've little idea why just disabling the RTC alarm would cause the system not
to shutdown. Perhaps someone who understands ACPI or rtc-cmos.c can
shed some light?
For linux-acpi, the acpidump is linked to from here:
