Well, once you've finished resuming, do you need the functionality
loaded? It really only needs to be there when you actually want to
hibernate, which is why we have that nice module loading code in the
hibernate script. The rest of the time, it's just a waste of otherwise
usable ram. That's my logic behind having tuxonice buildable as modules.
