Affects me as well.

Dell Precision M6600
64 bit Ubuntu 11.04 Ubuntu 11.10

The laptop was on bios A03 which I updated to A07 and disabled "c state control" in bios after a few attempts but still no joy.

Removing the AC connector before issuing the shutdown command within gnome did allow for a clean power down. Later, I stopped acpi-support but left AC connected and the system also successfully powered down.

I'm currently running 64 bit 11.04. I'd consider going back to 10, but it EOL next month.
