The handhelds.org CVS should, IMHO, be considered as experimental stuff.  
If the code there didn't make it into Russell patch is mostly because it is
either not mature enough, quickly hacked up or simply too badly written from
a maintenance point of view.  Yes it may work, but it also has to be nice
looking too.  So a good rule of thumb is to always look at the _latest_ -rmk
patch to see if some more recent code then what can be found in h.o's CVS
didn't appear there.

By initialising the lowest power mode on boot up in h3600.c and ensuring 
each individual drivers is doing the right thing you'll end up fixing both 
modes at once.
