Comment (by Tony Reix <tony.reix@…>):

 Hi Oliver,

 I've pulled the last changes in context directory from "develop" to my
 Ubuntu PC, and I've copied the files on my tests machines.
 However, I still have an error when running bjam in "modular-
 boost/libs/context/build" (on my test machines and on my PC), though it
 worked fine with v1.55 :

 tony_at_tony2:~/BOOST/modular-boost/libs/context/build$ bjam
     - symlinks supported       : yes
     - hardlinks supported      : yes
 /home/tony/BOOST/modular-boost/tools/build/src/tools/link.jam:314: in
 link-recursively
 ERROR: rule "'''READLINK'''" unknown in module "link".

 Any idea about why this does not work ?


 Anyway:
 If I run ./b2 at top and then run ../b2 in status directory, that works
 fine, and I've been able to check that all the context and coroutine tests
 are "**passed**", both on LoP LE (Ubuntu 14.04) and LOP BE (Fedora 19).

 Jamfile</home/tony/BOOST/modular-boost/libs/context/build>.gas
 ../bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8/debug/address-model-64/architecture-
 power/link-static/asm/make_ppc64_sysv_elf_gas.o
 Jamfile</home/tony/BOOST/modular-boost/libs/context/build>.gas
 ../bin.v2/libs/context/build/gcc-4.8/debug/address-model-64/architecture-
 power/link-static/asm/jump_ppc64_sysv_elf_gas.o

 So, that seems perfect for Linux On Power in LE and BE modes ! :)

 However, please check that it does not break other PPC64 environment.

 Regards,

 Tony
