It really does nearly nothing on resume.  The sleep LED goes out.
Rarely, the machine appears to wake up.  However, it doesn't do
anything.  It doesn't respond to the network.  It will switch virtual
terminals, echo typing on the screeen, but nothing actually happens.
Once in, oh, 100 tries or so, it resumes properly.  As I said, it
worked fine with a -STABLE from the first of the year.
