 You can try using uswsusp, which is an unsupported manner of hibernating.

1) Install uswsusp (sudo apt-get install uswsusp)
2) Configure the resume offset as shown in
http://wiki.geteasypeasy.com/Fix:_hibernate
3) Tell pm-utils to use uswsusp (modify /etc/pm/config.d/00sleep_module to set
SLEEP_MODULE="uswsusp")

Anyway, one such bug (#252143) regarding swap files was reported before.
