Ah, interesting. I would like to take a look at that when you get a chance. I
can confirm that suspend/resume do work in versions 3.0 and 4.0 (although halt
and reboot do not seem to work in any version reliably). I will also
say that of the 8 versions I've now tried to install (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,9.1) only
two (3,4) made it through the installer and worked as expected. After I've had
the chance to try some of the intermediate releases I will send out a table of
all of them and the specific problems encountered with each in case that might
be useful to someone.

In the meantime I'm happily using 4.0 ^_^
