Right, just saw them. Thanks for committing.

I don't particularly like it either, TBH, but it seemed less evil to
me than hardcoding /usr/sbin. If you prefer the latter, I'm fine with
that, I just thought that we shouldn't break /usr/local.

That would just apply to pm-powersave itself; this is good and
necessary, since the scripts which are called through it might rely on
a sensible $PATH. But passing envp to g_spawn_() doesn't help
g_spawn() _itself_ to find the program you are trying to run (in fact
this was my first idea as well, but I tried it and it doesn't work).
Thanks,
Martin
