Absolutely not.

The L100 and presumably the 110 have markedly different behaviors of the
power button than the L50 and presumably the L70.

The L50 only seems to cause a hibernate no matter how long you press it, IF
it is not set in BIOS to "boot mode"

The L100, even IF it is set to hibernate, WILL power down the machine if the
power button is pressed long enough ( 3 sec seems about right ). A very
sensible change in my opinion.

Sorry if this has been answered before... I left my machine on at work, came
in to 200 emails to wade through, and am just taking them in order.

Looking over the question again, I am not sure if I helped or confused, you
said the L70 takes a few seconds as well so I am not sure if it is acting
like the 100 you are considering and you were worried about both...

Anyway, the action you are describing is normal and desirable.

Thanks
