Boost.Context fails to compile on 32 bit Mac OS

[anonymous]

Hi,

I'm using the latest Boost.Context version from the boost SVN: ​http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/libs/context/src/asm/

It compiles and runs for Mac OS 64 bit, Linux 32 & 64 Bit, but it fails to compile on a 32 bit Mac OS:

The system in use is: MacOS 10.5.8 on an Intel Core 2 Duo and gcc 4.7.1 (from MacPorts).

This is quite a major issue. Can we get an ETA on a fix? boost is now unusable on OS X.

boost 1.52 does not suffer from this issue.

seams to work in boost-1.52 (see comment 3)
