IBM Thinkpad A20* support?

I see encouraging news about the newer T and X machines, but I am 
wondering about an A20m and FreeBSD. I have NetBSD installed, and 
as much as I like it, I'd like little things like suspend/resume 
to work and that seems to be a done deal on FreeBSD. Trying it on 
NetBSD is a great way to see if fsck still works, since it always 
prompts a crash. I have a 4.5-STABLE and 4.6-PRERELEASE machine 
here, so I am somewhat familiar with FreeBSD.

It may seem a silly thing to be bothered by but it *is* one of the 
  benefits of a laptop.

And yes, I know all about the crummy BIOS problem the A20s had 
with 4.2: I have updated the BIOS and all is well.

It was a book to kill time for those who liked it better dead.
