Possibly an SMM trap...

Huh. That might work, yes. Windows does the ACPI write, an i8042 write, 
the ACPI write, another i8042 write and then gives up. If that happens 
sufficiently quickly, this might get us somewhere. Justin, can you try:

#include <sys/io.h>
#include <unistd.h>

int main() {
	iopl(3);
	outb(6, 0xcf9);
	usleep(100);
	outb(6, 0xcf9);
	return 0;
}

and see if that reboots?
