Bugger. What would be required to fix it?

Thing is, this is going to make powerpc distro's lives difficult since
part of uswsusp needs to live in the initrd which usually just contains
kernel modules + normal programs, and no powerpc distro I know of ships
64-bit userspace on a 32-bit kernel since, well, it doesn't really have
many advantages.
