Why should it be a bug? In my opinion if the state information of the
systems are stored in different locations suspending one system and
resuming another one is not risky but of course you should mount files
from a suspend system read/writeable. I think, windows will not use
the linux swap.
Sometimes I suspend my linux and boot windows and then resume linux
again. Up to now I had no problems. Indeed I assume you can have
several linuxes and do the same provided each linux has its own swap
partition.
Kind regards, Wilfried
