Is 'GNU AS' not part of cygwin/mingw distri? Which assembler is used depends on boost.build. I don't know an option to force boost.build to use a specific assembler tool. I assume boost.build chooses 'MASM' as assembler on Windows - the boost.build docu makes no statement in this case :/ Supporting another assembler tool requires only to transform from 'MASM' syntax to 'NASM'/'GNU AS' which should be an easy task. - but all depends on boost.build Oliver Am 17.02.2012 13:39, schrieb Bernd Prager:

cygwin is currently not supported by boost.context. reason: boost.context requires assembler which is only provided for MASM/MS VC on WINDOWS (not cygwin and mingw).

Do you plan to support 'nasm' (the assembler available on these platforms)?
