2.6.14: Oops on suspend after on-the-fly switch to anticipatory i/o scheduler - PowerBook5,4

I boot with elevator=cfq (wanted to try the ionice stuff, never got
around to it). Having decided to go back to the anticipatory
scheduler, I did the following:

# echo anticipatory > /sys/block/hda/queue/scheduler
# echo anticipatory > /sys/block/hdc/queue/scheduler

A while later I did 'sudo snooze', which produced the Oops below.

Booting with elevator=as and then changing to cfq, sleep works fine.
But if I resume and change back to anticipatory I get a similar Oops
on the next 'sudo snooze'.
