Some additional information:
I tested the latest e1000e driver from sf.net on other hardware (Lenovo T61), which is in use here too. The T61s didn't show the "reboot instead of power off" before, with the e1000e driver, that is included in the kernels mentioned above. However they do show the problem with the e1000e driver from sf.net (version 2.5.4).
Maybe in 1 out of 10 cases the notebook is able to power off, and then WOL works too. But in the other cases the notebook just reboots.
So it seems the driver from sf.net doesn't really solve the problem, but somehow only changes some conditions under which the bug is triggered.
