I just returned from a trip overseas and can report that the ability to obtain a re-entry permit is, indeed, working at the Suvanabhumi Airport.
If you have an annual visa and no re-entry permit and plan to depart from Bangkok by air, it is very simple to obtain one at the airport. The re-entry permit desk is just as you enter International Immigration. All you need to do is the following;
1. Hand them your completed request for re-entry permit, either single or multiple. (Fillable form can be downloaded from the Thai Immigration website)
2. Have a signed copy of the photo page of your passport
3. Have a signed copy of your annual visa
That's it. If you get the single entry, just pay your THB 1,000. If you want multiple entry, it is more (THB 3,700-I think?)
Took me about 5 minutes, only.
