Re: Building boost 1.72 with arm 64 bit gcc compiler

That's error coming from boost.context library build for assembly code.
Don't think there's arm64 support there for gcc -- seems like it's looking
for clang.  Obviously if you're not using boost.context you can ignore.
Not seeing an issue for this, but maybe worthy of filing a report:
