Ok, I've compiled and tried 2.5.40.

Zip. Nada. swsusp doesn't show up at all.  If I compile with SMP
turned on I get a message about swsusp being incompatible with
SMP.  Running UP it doesn't show up in the boot log, though it
looks to be compiled.

It also doesn't show in the SysRq help list.

echo'ing things to /proc/acpi/sleep does nothing.

Bad test in acpi/sleep.c; then IDE fix is needed and andrew's mm patch
to really free memory.
