No, the lid is open and I use neither an external keyboard nor a
monitor. I use the PowerBook from another machine via VNC.

The pbbuttonsd.conf(5) man page says:

     To have always a sign of life from the computer pbbuttonsd would
     play a beep every roundabout 30  seconds  if  the  computer  was
     still  running  with  closed lid.
                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

But the lid isn't closed. There seems to be a bug.
