Did I miss something, or is there no generic "map this key to a
script" configuration item?

I figured I could assign it to SleepKey:

SleepKey              = pmupowerbutton
SleepKeyDelay         = 0

but I don't see anything in the logs that would indicate that
/etc/power/pmcs-pbbuttonsd is being called. I'll try adding some debug
printfs later. (BTW, what is the recommended way to set
CFLAGS+=-DDEBUG when rebuilding a .deb? Or should I just manually
compile from source, now that apt-src fetched all the dependencies?)

(Note that the kernel (Debian's 2.6.10) does not support actual
sleeping on this hardware; I'm just trying to map the power button to
a safe shutdown routine.)
