It is expected that the theorem holds more generally for all almost simple groups with socle not equal to an alternating group. Primitive groups in which cyclic subgroups do not have a regular orbit seem to be rare, unless the group is related to some action of an alternating group. For instance, by direct computation one can see that in a primitive groups of degree < 50 all cyclic subgroups have regular orbits, unless the action is related to an alternating group.
Idea of the Proof A mixture of the two techniques already mentioned is needed: intersections of conjugacy classes of subgroups and embeddings of permutation modules.
