Ben - I've added you to this bug so you can comment on the interpretation of the changelog entry here.

The 2nd line of the changelog entry says "disable hibernate if a swap file is active." I'm not sure precisely what is meant by 'active' though.

It could mean 'if a swap file rather than a swap partition is being used', or it might mean 'if part of the swap space is in-use' (hibernate saves it's memory image to the swap space, so if there's some in use the possibility of hibernate writing over it needs to be prevented).

If Ben can tell us that we can test if that is the reason for the issue.
