The only solution I've come across so far is to run:

xbacklight -set n

where n is a number between 0 and 100.

And for the first time I have control over the brightness of my laptop's
LCD.  However, xbacklight has to be run from the command line and does
not seem to interact with any of GNOME's applets, or ACPI events like
plugging in AC mains or going onto battery.  What's xbacklight doing
that nothing else can do?
