Good news!  I used that patch with 

   acpi_os_name="Microsoft Windows" acpi_serialize

and I haven't been able to hang it.  I did 14 cycles with no problem.
The first 8 cycles were with debug_{level,layer}=0x10, which was the
combination that hung more easily than layer=0x90,level=0x1F.  To
check whether the debug params matters, I did the last 6 cycles with
layer=0x90,level=0x1F.

To further stress it, I turned on thermal polling: 1 second for each
of the four thermal zones (starting them 0.25 seconds apart to
maximize the chance that a thermal poll happens at a dangerous time
during the suspend or wake).  Six further cycles worked fine.  Then I
unloaded and loaded the thermal module, which often helps produce
hangs on the next suspend, and that was fine for six more cycles.  I
haven't been able to hang it at all.

To summarize:

1. hangs on 4th S3 : patch in #63.
2. hangs on 2nd S3 : vanilla + acpi_os_name="Microsoft Windows"
3. hangs on 2nd S3 : vanilla + acpi_os_name="Microsoft Windows" acpi_serialize 
4. doesn't hang    :   patch + acpi_os_name="Microsoft Windows" 

Probably the patch + acpi_serialize will hang too, but I'm not sure.
The unclean version of the patch (i.e. with debugging printk's) did
hang with just acpi_serialize.

The slight problems: the fan state and polling frequencies are garbled
on resume.  By fan state being garbled, I mean that it is sometime on
even though the temps are all below the trip points, and acpi -t
reports that the fan is off.  So the system doesn't have the right fan
state.  Similarly with the thermal polling: It reports 1 second for
each zone, but it's not polling at all (no TMP methods reported in the
dmesgs).  If I set the polling intervals to 1 second, then it starts
polling again.

Also, I need to wake it up using the power switch instead of the Fn
key.  Using the power switch produces a couple sharp clicks on the
speaker.
