I confirm restarting dhcdbd on resume has fixed the issue for me.

This isse can be easily worked around in at least pm-utils until NM 0.7
is out (I see dhcdbd has been obsoleted by NetworkManager 0.7.0 in the
latest report stated as reference).

Should a wishlist bug be opened against pm-utils to add this?
