Hi Thomas,

A quick question:
What was the conclusion after you implemented getcontext/setcontext in
assembly? Would it be possible to integrate into Hurd or not? I would
like to summarize my patches to the debian-hurd or gnu-hurd mailing list
before moving onto something else. Unfortunately the port cannot be
tested without these functions, so there are probably more issues to
resolve when they are available.

BTW: Next porting issue is getting mono to work (I already have Debian
packages built, with some limited functionality for now)

Thanks!

Before *context's stack switching can work (and before I can test what I
implemented), we first need to complete the Hurd threadvar -> __thread
TLS transition,
<http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/open_issues/glibc/t/tls-threadvar.html>
-- which I started working on, but not yet finished. That's one of the
tings I will continue with.

Thomas (nach Diktat verreist)

Now summarized on

Please post the patches you already have.
