I’ve made a few adjustments following that suggestion (see
below), dist-upgraded sid to ensure I’ve got the latest
version of everything, rebooted (there was a new kernel to
update to anyway), and… still no lock for both console and
X11 sessions.

Running xlock -mode blank manually works, so this is a
regression from when I only had the ACPI stuff installed.

In case it’s relevant, X11 is ran by “exec startx” after
logging in.
