I've pushed some commits (boost.contex) to branch develop. Unfortunately I've no access to Windows systems. Oliver 19.08.2026 03:11:36 Tom Kent via Boost <boost@lists.boost.org>:

Any ideas where that could be coming from? I'm pretty sure I don't set that manually.

sysv is set by default. The default_abi rule is used by Boost.Context project in private requirements, i.e. it applies only to Boost.Context. If I'm not mistaken, for everyone else the sysv default remains in effect unless abi is specified on the command line.
I think, the feature should be made optional with no default. Boost.Context can continue to use the default_abi rule to deduce it from the target platform, for everyone else it should not be set.

for Windows '<abi>sysv' is wrong - I believe it should be '<abi>ms'

Still seeing the same config issue I reported for the beta RC:

I've updated my command to include abi=ms but it is still complaining about a similar error:
