I don't think so. Boost.Fiber builts on context and without a working context implementation, the fiber is useless.
because I don't get feedback about the implementation of an architecture, nor regression-tests exists, I should throw away the work. of course I let it in the library and wait if someone tests it and reports the bug. otherwise it would be impossible to get any feedback.
do you think I've a machine for each architecture at home? I can only
write the code if requested by some users and I have to rely on the willing of community members to test the code on the specific hardware.
Absolutely. But context is shipped with code for PPC64 so it should be assumed it works.

Yes, I got side tracked. I am not blaming you for not delivering a PPC64 Boost.Context implementation. When i get back to the project where i need the context switch for PPC64, i will certainly get back to you. I was just trying to point to a case where Fiber is not working (with no indication in the docs or elsewhere). Sorry if you got the wrong impression.
after reading the postings of you and other members of your group I must get the impression you really try to dis me Please keep in mind that I do this work only in my spare time (beside I've a family too), I've not the time as you in your daily work at the university. And then you and your fellows tell me that I'm to stupid - beside that some of the criticised issues are questionable - copy-and-paste error happen.
