RE: [ACPI-sppt] clock stops during S4 suspend

So, the RTC, i.e., hardware clock, i.e., BIOS clock, continues to
run during suspend since it runs anyway when power is off.

The system clock, time kept by the kernel, is obviously suspended
along with everyting else during S4.

During a normal full boot something like 'hwclock --hctosys'
happens somewhere deep in the /etc/rc process startup commands,
something which does not happen with a restore from suspend.

I use acpid to suspend my machine, but first I unmount my Samba
mounts since those mounts do not restore cleanly.  In other words
acpid allows me to run a script to do things before the actual
'echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep' command.  Is there a way to define a
script which will immediately run after a resume, something
like the /etc/rc.local which just happens?  It would be nice to
grep my ifconfig eth0 output and remount the Samba mounts
automatically too for whichever network I happen to be connected
too.
