#10256: [boost test] -  issue: sigaltstack
------------------------------+---------------------
 Reporter:  timothee.ewart@…  |      Owner:  rogeeff
     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  test
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------
 The IBM blue gene/Q linux compute node does not support sigaltstack linux
 function. Consequently the boost test library does not work. I already
 open discussion on the boost forum, and boost user.

 The modification is easy it consists to add the macro " __bgq__ " e.g.

  176 #  if !defined(__CYGWIN__) && !defined(__QNXNTO__) &&!
 defined(__bgq__)
  177 #   define BOOST_TEST_USE_ALT_STACK
  178 #  endif


 https://github.com/boostorg/test/blob/boost-1.55.0/include/boost/test/impl/execution_monitor.ipp

 line 176.

 I already patch my version of boost on my BG/Q it will be nice to have for
 the next version

 Cheers
