I was running 2.6.37-1~experimental.1, fwiw, since 2011-01-09.  I don't
think that was based off of rc4, because i was running
2.6.37~rc5-1~experimental.3 before that since 2010-12-16.

so the dates are:

 2010-12-16: start running 2.6.37~rc5-1~experimental.3
 2011-01-09: start running 2.6.37-1~experimental.1
 2011-02-17: start running 2.6.37-1

I run this machine every day, connect it to multiple wired networks, and
have a usage pattern of suspend-to-ram at least twice a day.  I never
saw this problem until i was running 2.6.37-1.

I don't think i was simply lucky with the previous versions.
