However, I am actually less concerned about whether or not Boost.Context is functional on WinCE/ARM. What doesn't seem right is that Boost.Context is aborting the entire regression test sequence by generating a run-time error in the jamfilile.
the jam file dos not special things, it provides only the alternatives. you can specify --without-context in order to exclude context from build.
This problem is actually occurring as part of the automated trunk regression testing, not a local build, so it is slightly more inconvenient to specifically exclude this library from the test suite. However, I think there is a fairly simple fix to allow the build of Boost.Context to fail gracefully in the event that the architecture is unsupported. Supplying a default 'fall back' alias for asm_context_sources to be used when no other alias matches should keep the Boost.Build file from throwing an hard error. Please see the attached patch.
