That didn't work, unfortunately--apparently there wasn't a .service file
providing that name to dbus.

I did, however, try with sudo /etc/acpi/sleep.sh, and I could replicate the
behaviour (or at least, something that looked the same).

This time, I noticed an error in the terminal about "Hardware clock contains
an invalid time, cannot set system clock from it." (searching on google
suggests this is not a common error, assuming I remembered it correctly). On
rebooting into Windows, I found that I was in 2044. I may not have mentioned
it, but last time I had a similar issue that left me in 1908. All I need now
is a Delorian. I guess that the hardware clock goes wrong somewhere (whether
this is a hardware problem or something in the sleep routine, I don't know),
Linux rejects that as being clearly silly, but Windows accepts it and copies
it to the system time (Linux then accepted 1908 after rebooting from
Windows, but I set 2044 back in Windows before rebooting).

I hope that the clock thing is peripheral to the thrashing issue,
however.

Of course, I'd forgotten that Windows IFS drivers can't mount a dirty ext3
filesystem, but happily I have a memory stick with DSL lying around. I've
attached /var/log/dmesg from when I did a hard restart during the thrashing.
I made a copy of the whole of /var/log/, so if you need any more information
from that, please let me know.
