This patch allows a debugger to attach when an exception occurs in a thread other than the mainthread.
I am not happy about the wait in handle_exceptions, but it works on my machine. I think that a waitloop until the debugger is attached is cleaner, but there must be a reason why the debbugging loop is implemented this way.
The intent is for an attached debugger to immediately see the location that died. If you loop in the try_to_debug code then it is a pain to figure out exactly where the exception occurred.
I never see immediately the location, i must always continue the program to get it.
Anyway, attached is new attempt that does not make use of Suspend/ResumeThread and keeps the process running until the debugger is attached.
