As seen by at least ajacoutot, myself and various others (e.g.
the thread including http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=123598831213309)
some systems hang frequently with apmd, sometimes only when flags that
automatically change speed are used, or in at least aja's case, when
apmd is used at all.

I've been running apmd without flags for a while and it has been totally
stable (so much so that I forgot about the problem) but I was reminded
of this recently when Rivo (anoncvs.estpak.ee operator) mentioned he had
problems with his x220 and I suggested this might be a cause.

If nobody has ideas as to a possible cause/fix that doesn't break other
machines, can we at least add a caveats section somewhere, probably the
apmd(8) manual, warning of it?
