I've gotten it to work with a UP kernel, but
I think i386 SMP suspend/resume is still quite
badly broken.

There is an old patch that claims to fix
this, but I've not gotten very far with it
yet (I've made a few half-hearted attempts
to update it to match -CURRENT; what I have
compiles but still fails):

There's also some commits from a few months
ago that got amd64 suspend/resume to work.
