Could you post your X server configuration, installed packages, and anything
else that might be relevant?  I'd like to see what differences there are
between your working configuration and mine; you say you've had sleep
working without problems on an M9-based tibook so I'm wondering what I don't
have set up here.

Yeah.  There is nothing interesting being done to the machine in between
sleeps.  I can only think that the X radeon driver is doing something
incorrectly, but I have no way to know for sure.
