OK folks, I've got a solution together, and it involves fixing both libsmbios and hal. The solution has been accepted upstream for libsmbios. Once there is a new release of libsmbios that includes this fix, I'll submit it to upstream hal as well.
This is the commit in libsmbios that is necessary for the HAL fix to work: http://linux.dell.com/git/?p=libsmbios.git;a=commitdiff;h=ad6c807303b7db44cc8c71f8b01722ff2b7b8d68;hp=1168ed653e2d95cb2336d0e851822fcd23265718
