I don't think there's  anything abnormal there:  the cardmgr probably emits
these messages  before the machine suspends  all right just syslogd doesn't
get  a chance  to write them   out to the  messages file  before you resume
operation.  I   haven't looked into the syslogd   source but  I  can easily
imagine that the time stamps correspond to the  time the message is written
out not  when it was initiated;  there's normally no substantial difference
between the two  and there  may not be   an easy way  to  do otherwise.  If
you're curious use the source ;).

Hope this helps.
