Success!!!

The bug is definitely related to gnome-screensaver. I uninstalled
gnome-screensaver, and installed xscreensaver and now suspend, screen
locking etc. all work with compiz enabled, using Peter's driver.

I noticed I had xscreensaver-gl installed previously too. I'll try a few
combinations, and report my results soon.
