It might never be in the official RHL kernel, but I took a crack at
making swsusp patches that apply to the rawhide kernel tree.

These patches apply (with a little fuzz) to the 2.4.22-1.2049 kernel
source tree:

http://people.redhat.com/tcallawa/swsusp/linux-2.4.22-1.2049.nptl-swsusp-1.1-rc8-whole.patch
http://people.redhat.com/tcallawa/swsusp/linux-2.4.22-1.2049.nptl-swsusp-1.1-rc8B-incremental.patch

I also needed to apply the following patch to make the i686 UP kernel
build (ymmv):

http://people.redhat.com/tcallawa/swsusp/linux-2.4.22-1.2040-schedfix2.patch

Please note, this patch builds for me, but I never booted it. It may eat
your children, and if it does so, you have no one to blame but yourself.
