This bug is present with Lenovo T400, with fully updated Karmic AMD64 release. I downloaded the 11/23 builds and installed them with dpkg -i. It did not appear to make any difference. Unplugging and replugging the power cord a time or two when the battery is nearly fully charged, leads to a locked up state where devkit-power -d reports on-battery: no, even when the cord is unplugged. If you kill the devkit-power-daemon and then restart it, you can sometimes get it to start recognizing power states properly.
In short this is not fixed as of 9 Dec 09.
