sorry for the delay,

the thread has an endless working-function that does something and after 
this it sleeps for a calculatet period of time. i want suspend the 
thread from another thread, BUT suspension should only occur at the end 
of the endless loop (after the sleep & before the new activity).

have mingw & win32
