Bug#554046: Bad interaction between uswsusp and pm-utils ?

AIUI, g-p-m uses pm-utils to initiate suspend and resume. The Debian
package of pm-utils has a patch that uses uswsusp if it is available
(indeed, pm-utils suggests uswsusp). 

I was able to fix the suspend loop by purging uswsusp and using the
kernel methods. On both my Thinkpad X60s and T61, this caused no
problem. YMMV on other laptops.
