--- Comment #4 from Ian Lance Taylor <ian at airs dot com> 2012-04-30 15:45:06 UTC --- Unfortunately the MIPS64 machine in the GCC compile farm, gcc42.fsffrance.org, is running a version of glibc that is too old to build libgo. It is using glibc 2.7, which does not have a version of getcontext/setcontext/makecontext for MIPS. I see in the glibc-ports sources that those functions were added in 2009. So unless I find another test machine I am not going to be able to properly test a patch.
