Comment:

 i tested this last week, so i knew it used to work.  turns out that when i
 did the powerd mods for XO-1, i remembered that XO-1 can wake on arp, and
 added 'a' to its ethtool wol command:
 {{{
 ethtool -s eth0 wol ua
 }}}

 but i was forgetting that the ethtool support code in the current driver
 doesn't support that.  so powerd's ethtool command is failing, and no
 wakeup options are being set.  changing the command to:
 {{{
 ethtool -s eth0 wol u
 }}}
 (which matches XO-1.5 command) fixes this.

 i'll change it in powerd for the next release, but only after
 investigating why we can't do wake-on-arp.
