boost.context was an implementation detail of boost.fiber. Phil Endecott
requested to move this code in a separate library.

boost::function is supported by boost.fiber (which uses boost.context as
basis).

boost.coroutine which uses POSIX ucontext could use it too (AFAIK
boost.coroutine has assembler for i386).
