Yes, it seems that the fan is set to off after a hibernate.
/proc/acpi/fan/C263/state  changes from "status:  on" to "status:
off", but I have no idea what is causing it.  All powersave settings
are the same, and all acpi related modules are the same.

Maybe I should try and reload the fan module after a hibernate..  I'll
give that a go and see what happens.

I had to stop acpid and force remove the fan module to get it out.
Then, when I restart acpid, it loads the fan module again, but the fan
is still set to off.

So, something is telling acpi that the fan should not come on again.
(Transision to D3)
BIOS maybe?
But according the the BIOS, this should just be a shutdown and reboot.
Suspend-to-disk is not a BIOS function or is it?
