Additional information from ongoing testing: If I suspend/resume off the
docking station, it *appears* to always work correctly. If I
suspend/resume on the docking station, again, it *appears* to always
work correctly. If I suspend on the docking station, remove my thinkpad
from the docking station, and then resume, *BLAM* ... it *appears* to
hang *every* time.

So, as my docking station contains a SATA DVD writer, I think my
suspend/resume problem (part (a)) might be a manifestation of kernel bug
62801, see http://bit.ly/1ccXSYv. This is a deadlock problem introduced
by a change in kernel 3.10. As far as I can tell (I'm no expert!), there
is no official fix yet.

However, this still doesn't explain the failure to start the graphical
subsystem on some subsequent reboots after this hang.

It also doesn't explain the other failure mode (part (b)) where I have
been seeing the system apparently power-off during suspend. I now
believe that this only happens *sometimes* when I suspend off the
docking station, dock the thinkpad while suspended, and then leave the
thinkpad suspended on the docking station for some time (typically
overnight).

Re request to test with the latest development release, yes, now I have
a guaranteed way to recreate, I can do that for you. I will test that
and report the results (probably tomorrow) before (I suspect)  moving
onto testing the upstream kernel.
