It makes no sense because the OP implies he wants to run Windows games
*while his Linux system is doing a long compile*. He seems to think
"hibernation" somehow means "shutdown and let me boot another system but
keep working anyway". It's deeply confused.

Of course he could run Windows in a VM, but many games don't work too
well in this configuration because of limited graphics. Or run Linux in
a VM under Windows, but I suspect that won't be too comfortable either.
