makecontext/swapcontext/getcontext

Hello,

Is there any plan to implement the context management functions
(makecontext/ swapcontext/ getcontext - specified in UNIX95/98) in glibc for ia64? We need those functions for the programs we are porting and currently those functions exist in the glibc as stubs (return ENOSYS). Is there any equivant functions exist in the glibc/kernel which do the same job?

Thanks!
