[PATCH 01/15] server: Wait before suspending threads in APC.

Indeed, I didn't consider the case where another exception is raised at 
the same time the debugger tries to break.

I'm not sure to see why passing the context would make things easier, I 
understand it's just a matter of extending the size of the uninterrupted 
section in wine_server_call to stay in it while processing system apcs.

However it still wouldn't solve the issue I described previously, where 
WaitForDebugEvent would return as soon as the exception debug event is 
linked, and the debugger could then assume the process is stopped 
although some threads are still possibly running system apcs.
