I would be happy for suspend2 and swsusp to coexist for at least at while.= =20 That's why I've made suspend2 play nicely with swsusp ever since I ported i= t=20 to 2.6. > Is it really impossible to have the third possbility of both the > implementations in kernel at the same time?

I just have one issue (the removal of name_to_dev_t = by=20 klibc) to address. A really simple or short-term solution would be to re-ad= d=20 it, but I want to think the issue through more carefully first.
