Hi,

I notice session saving is disabled in 0.9.60 and current rsync.

I seem to remember a post some time ago about why session saving
support was disabled but can't remember why/can't find that post.

Anyone remember why? Samuel?

I re-enabled the code but have been having some strange lock-ups
occuring after a few suspend/resume cycles.

Is it not working because some state in the kernel module is
not being saved/restored?

The reason I suspect this is i've been testing with session saving
re-enabled and my copy-on-write disk/session patches which effectively
make the mol_session and disk devices read-only. After about 3 resumes,
the Mac is hung - now this could only be becuase of state in the
kernel module as the session file and disk are exactly the same at
the start of each run.

Is it a big/complex job to get it working again? Anything I could
do to help out?
