Proposing something like:
  ftp://sources.redhat.com/pub/dm/patches/2.6-unstable/editing/patches/00016.patch
(not compile-tested)

Can you find a way to make it cope without an 'undo presuspend' function to
call on error?  It might be OK to add a call to 'resume' on error if you can 
make that work correctly when not preceded by postsuspend.
