        Sets the values of the registers.

        @see: L{get_context}

        @type  context:  dict( str S{->} int )
        @param context: Dictionary mapping register names to their values.

        @type  bSuspend: bool
        @param bSuspend: C{True} to automatically suspend the thread before
            setting its context, C{False} otherwise.

            Defaults to C{False} because suspending the thread during some
            debug events (like thread creation or destruction) may lead to
            strange errors.

            Note that WinAppDbg 1.4 used to suspend the thread automatically
            always. This behavior was changed in version 1.5.
