After grovelling around in a bunch of config files, I've partially answered my question. 'gnome-power-manager' is built on top of HAL, and performs all its actions through the org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.SystemPowerManagement interface. So, digging around through the HAL files, I found the scripts -- conveniently enough in /usr/lib/hal/scripts -- that are actually invoked to perform the actions. These scripts are themselves clients of 'pm-utils' (indeed 'hal' lists 'pm-utils' as a dependency). And 'pm-utils' has (just barely) the functionality needed to unload and reload flaky kernel modules on suspend and hibernate. It doesn't yet have the ability to specify a list of services to stop/restart, but the infrastructure's there. Now all I need is a non-GUI daemon to drive the whole thing.
