I notice that Boost.Context only seems to support MSVC under Windows, and
attempts to compile it under GCC or Intel C++ will fail because it's not correctly assembling fcontext_i386_ms_pe_masm/** fcontext_x86_64_ms_pe_masm.
e.g. Under Intel I get:

-> MASM should be used here, maybe an boost.build issue

Whilst under GCC (via MinGW-w64) I get:

-> 'ml64' is not recognized -> MASM is not installed or in the search path
This occurs for both 64-bit and 32-bit compilation.
Is this a known issue with a planned fix? Or is MSVC the only compiler supported under Windows? (I know it's a pain because GCC afaik uses a different assembly syntax... Not sure about Intel.)
as I wrote in the documentation (section requirements): on Windows
MASM32/64 is required

Okay thanks, I must've overlooked that in the docs. As for MASM, it's definitely installed, so I guess it just needs to be added to the search path. No idea what's going on with Intel though...
