We should add an URL to reliable documentation which supports that

Unfortunately, MSDN says only "SuspendThread suspends the thread. It's
designed for debuggers. Don't use in applications.":
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms686345(v=vs.85).aspx
And nothing more useful.
So when I found this piece of code with Suspend/Resume and failed GetContext
I did some googling.
And found this article:

Personally I am happy to treat a Raymond Chen blog post as "reliable
documentation"...
Me too. :)

Fabien, I wonder why nobody noticed that the current
code did not do what it was written for. As far as I see
the threads were created with the wrong options, so
GetThreadContext always failed and therefore was only
executed once, so there was no waiting for thread
suspension.
Removing the code would have given identical results.
Is that in an indicator that the SuspendThread is not
needed at all, as it was discussed in the other e-mails
here?
