Hi Oliver,

Not yet, there's a few things we need to sort out. The most important is that the regression test results are good. Can you mark up expected failures in 'status/explicit-failures-markup.xml' (remember to check the xml before committing, there's instructions at the top of the file)? Do you have any idea why Visual C++ 10 is failing? You are refering to tests RW_VC10 and RW_Mingw45? This is because the owner of this computers does not have the MASM (assembler) in its search dir. Any chance of getting a gas implementation to support working without MASM? What happens if one wants to cross compile Boost.Context from Linux or OS X? Do you know if there is a MASM compatible cross compiler available?
Yours,
Jürgen The syntax could be transformed into NASM syntax but the problem is that each assembler has its own syntax and I beleive it is likly that I'm faced to requests to support assembler 'xyz' on platform 'abc' too. Therefore I decided to support only a standard assembler on a platform. (MASM is distributed with the Windows SDKs)
