As discussed in bug 586302 we should work on trying to finally drop upower-pm-utils since we now have consolekit1 that should replace it completely for non-systemd users

In this concrete case, it seems we are even allowing sys-power/upower to satisfy the dep when USEs consolekit and systemd are both disabled... but reading configure it seems that it will require the upower syspend api... that if I don't misremember is only available in the old upower-pm-utils right?

If that is the case, I would simply disable all upower support and force people to use either systemd or consolekit
