I have the same laptop with the same lid closure crash. I was about to
rebuild with this config change to try it when I found updating to the
latest 3.6 experimental package fixed it for me.

Can you try installing linux-image-3.6-trunk-amd64 from experimental and
confirm?

Summary of versions I have tried:
* linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64/3.2.32-1 crashes
* linux-image-3.5-trunk-amd64/3.5.2-1~experimental.1 crashes
* linux-image-3.6-trunk-amd64/3.6.4-1~experimental.1 works
