I'm trying with 2.6.14.3, but I've got 2.6.15rc5 available here (can
always get the VI patch to rc6). Was intending to run the acpi_include
patch, but since that is a standard option in 2.6.14.x I never actually
pulled in that patch, so no other patches and I've backed out suspend2
now. Will also give 15rc6 a go in the morning.

In the morning.

I've also found that I forgot to disable registers. Neither made a
difference though.

Will do if I get it working. more-or-less is simply not good enough (or
should I just make a note there?).

Figured.

Thanks for you patience on this.
