Bug#369453: makecontext/setcontext/getcontext not implemented on ARM architecture



Package: libc6
Version: 2.3.6-7

Attempting to use any of the ucontext family of functions --- makecontext,
setcontext, getcontext, swapcontext --- produces the following link-time error:

   makecontext is not implemented and will always fail

It's right; it does.

I realise they're a bit exotic, but they *are* specified in the standard, and
more to the point my program requires them (for a coroutines implementation).
Said program was developed on i386 and works fine there. I currently don't
have any workarounds.

Is this worth doing anything about in Debian, or should it be referred upstream?
