More bad news.  My other sleep script, which unloads thermal before
suspending, just hung on the first sleep.  It has a vanilla 2.6.16-rc5
kernel with the BIOS DSDT (so no mods), but it's the first time it's
ever hung.  I suspect one of two recent changes:

1. The trackpoint died a couple days ago, so I had attached a USB/PS2
   external mouse.  But I tried sleeping again with that situation,
   with no problems.

2. I had booted it up and left it overnight without logging in, and
   so presumably without the X screensaver (not sure about that), and
   then logged in.  Not sure if that can make a difference.

Either way, it indicates that we don't know the whole story.

I wonder if the approach is to disable EC updates during suspend and
wake.  So hack the ACPI interpreter to ignore UPDT() (is it called
that in every ACPI bios implementation?) while acpi_in_suspend is
true, but let everything else happen.

Another thought is about the reason that I need to use the power
switch to wake it up (with the mods): acpi_os_queue_for_execution is
disabled by the acpi_in_suspend=TRUE setting, but maybe some methods
need to run to set Fn as the wakeup key.  Which maybe means I should
try the hack to prevent UPDT() running.
