I can confirm that upowerd nolonger spins trying to open
/proc/timer_stats; while it does continue to use a rather stupid
amount of CPU, it is now more evenly split between dbus, upowerd, and
gnome-power-statistics.  gnome-power-statistics is still not fixed
(see 689592) it still leaks memory like crazy in this scenario, and
dbus message passing appears to still being getting heavily abused the
whole time judging by the amount of cpu it burns.
