Confirmed - also i386 mharris packaging.
update - it didn't actually bring the OS down, it brought X11 down - though it looked like CentOS was down. Pressing the power button (thinkpad) resulted in X11 restarting followed by a clean shutdown.
If you can bring down X11 with a userspace program then this is not an issue of your application but of X11. It means there is a bug in X11. I guess you were doing this as a normal user and not as root?
