I agree about the need to increase the importance of this bug.
I also have this problem on two of my own machines and one of my customers all of which crash if suspend is used. The only way out then is for them to be turned on the power switch as off as none of the Alt-SysRq sequences work at that point. This is preventing me using it on any other machines at present.
I will try the work round from @stacktracker on my own machines but it needs to be fixed properly before I upgrade any other machines where I have been using gconf-editor to prevent suspend or hibernate.
