That's now been fixed on 5207R, 5208R and 5209R. I also had to update
the AV-SPAM, as a certain handler will run (if the AV-SPAM is installed)
that messes with the home directory of users on suspend/unsuspend. That
also wasn't applying the correct permissions when a user was getting
suspended.

Both updates are now available via YUM for all relevant platforms.
