Hello,
the same for vanilla 2.4.1 and 2.4.1ac3. Everything works ok until I turn off SMP
support (which is required to make it possible to turn off the machine using APM, since
ACPI is completely broken in 2.4.1 for me).

You do not need to do that. Enable both SMP and APM (just APM support, no
ACPI nor any other apm option). And add to your lilo.conf file a line:
append="apm=power-off".
At boot you will see a log message like:
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.14)
apm: disabled - APM is not SMP safe (power off active).
So kernel diables APM but lets the power-off feature active.
