What are these errors?

Oh - yes, it seems the fix for bug #515023 only applies when called from udev; so when called to reapply hdparm settings on a power event, or from the (incorrect) acpi-support maintainer script, the problem still exists. Marking this bug as affecting hdparm as well.

Power management settings won't be applied to any of your hard drives with this setting.
