There are not sourced, but executed. Therefore they do not need to be changed. 
Even when they source the pm-utils functions, bash knows all the posix stuff 
that is in now in posix compliant pm-utils, so there should be no problem, 
too.

Btw. are there so many user's hooks? Maybe you can get the users to submit 
them here for inclusion.
