pm-utils has had hybrid suspend functionality since 1.3.0 -- if the hardware does not support something fancier, calling pm-suspend-hybrid will set an RTC alarm for 900 seconds in the future and suspend. If the system gets woken by the alarm, it will immediately hibernate. gnome-power-manager has never exposed or used this functionality, though.
