Mmm.. this sounds really bad -- I wonder what happens if the rootfs is on USB ?

The system crashes as soon as it resumes.  As you might expect.

With older kernels, things just "worked" this way.  Has it now been broken ??

No; it has never worked.  Your memory of how older kernels behaved is wrong.

Ah. Perhaps my Kubuntu system was using a FreeBSD kernel under the hood back 
then.
It really did work for me, back about 2 years ago when last attempted.
But then suspend/resume (RAM) has always worked here on every notebook
I've ever used -- apparently not the norm for others.  I just expect more.

P.S.: Help is on the way.  I will soon submit a patch to help improve the

That would be very good to see.
