I downloaded linux-source-2.6.20, patched the kernel with 
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=9885&action=view (for working fans)

and

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/attachment.cgi?id=10022&action=view (for
working fans after resume)

and rebuilt the kernel.
The result was that pre-suspend, the fans worked as they should so the first 
patch helped.

The computer behaved strangely after resume so it was hard to tell if
the second patch worked as it should. 2.6.17 and earlier Ubuntu kernels
work fine with suspend to both ram and disk (modulo the fan problem) so
it appears that there's been some suspend regressions in the 2.6.20
Ubuntu kernels, unrelated to this particular bug. I noticed Ben Collins
saying in IRC that he'd dropped quite a few ACPI patches for the newer
kernels, so that may be the cause.
