Due to some internal confusion, this happened a little bit ago, but I
didn't know about it.  You can now tell it "I'm smarter than you and
have FDE you don't know about"[0].  This will let it work with
Truecrypt.

Mac and Linux support are still stalled.  Julian Oliver posted a quick
script for Linux that emulates some amount of the functionality last
March, I'm reposting:

#!/bin/sh

while true;
do
    AC=$(acpi -a | awk '{ print $3 }')
    if [ "$AC" = "off-line" ]:
        then
        echo "Power unplugged. Hibernating."
        pm-hibernate
    fi
    sleep 1
done
