Not sure yet. The deciding factor seems to be whether the DRI is enabled
or not rather than which X server is being used. And it's still not
clear to me whether switching to console for suspend makes a difference
with DRI enabled (the X server doesn't have a way to react to the
suspend otherwise in the absence of APM).

At any rate, before bringing this up on a DRI or X list, the current
X.Org tree should be tried.
