Suspend/Resume broken on Ubuntu

Irritatingly suspend/resume stopped working around about the time I upgraded to Karmic. After going down a few blind alleys I eventually looked at dmesg and saw:

cannot set freq 16000 to ep 0x86

...which is due to a broken driver for the Quickcam 5000, which wasn't broken in Jaunty. Unplug the webcam and resume now works again.
