Okay, I installed the linux-image-2.6.36-trunk-686-bigmem package
(plus linux-base) and moved my sleep.d hook out of the way. Then I
shut down completely and booted into the new kernel.
The system does stay asleep, so that's fixed. However, after waking
up, the system freezes for a few seconds several times. I didn't see
that with 2.6.32 and hook-disabled wakeup. This seems to go away after
a while, it could be one freeze for each USB device while rebinding it
or something. There are reproducibly (I tested three times) four
freezes, and there are four USB-devices other than root hubs.
According to "gnokii --monitor once", the 3G device came back up and
registered with the network.
