Better yet, try the following on a client:

1) Ensure that you *don't* have the package "powermanagement-interface"
installed (which provides `gdm-signal`).

2) Copy the attached file to /usr/bin/gdm-signal, and make it executable:
sudo cp ~/gdm-signal /usr/bin
sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/gdm-signal

3) *Temporarily*, remove the executable attribute from gnome-session-save, which is called by iTalc and overrides the shutdown command (remember to restore it after the test):
sudo chmod -x /usr/bin/gnome-session-save

4) Then start iTalc normally on the server and try to reboot or shutdown
the client. Hopefully it should work (it does for me).
