.SH PLATFORM\-SPECIFIC NOTES
.PP
On IA\-64, unw_context_t
has a layout that is compatible with
that of ucontext_t
and such structures can be initialized with
getcontext()
instead of unw_getcontext().
However, the
reverse is \fInot\fP
true and it is \fInot\fP
safe to use structures
initialized by unw_getcontext()
in places where a structure
initialized by getcontext()
is expected. The reason for this
asymmetry is that unw_getcontext()
is optimized for maximum
performance and does not, for example, save the signal mask.
