I believe hping2 can do WOL. A quick Google seems to imply there are binaries/packages floating around.
SL-C750- pdaXrom beta 1 (mostly unused)
Current distro: Gentoo

To answer my own question (because I hate it when I find questions with no answers).

This works:

import struct, socket

def WakeOnLan(ethernet_address):

  # Construct a six-byte hardware address

  addr_byte = ethernet_address.split(':')
  hw_addr = struct.pack('BBBBBB', int(addr_byte[0], 16),
    int(addr_byte[1], 16),
    int(addr_byte[2], 16),
    int(addr_byte[3], 16),
    int(addr_byte[4], 16),
    int(addr_byte[5], 16))

  # Build the Wake-On-LAN "Magic Packet"...

  msg = '\xff' * 6 + hw_addr * 16

  # ...and send it to the broadcast address using UDP

  s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM)
  s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_BROADCAST, 1)
  s.sendto(msg, ('<broadcast>', 9))
  s.close()

# Example use
WakeOnLan('0:3:93:81:68:b2')

As long as you have python installed, this works great. Just replace the MAC after the last line with the one you want to wake up.

Very nice. Now I can shut all of the computers in my house off (or put them to sleep) and use my Z to turn them on when I need to access them.
