Simon,

If we could depend on boost to stop changing their coroutine code every
couple of version then we wouldn't have to fork it and maintain our own
version.  Unfortunately, history has proven otherwise.  Your change
would be the forth time this code as been changed to accommodate boost.
The short answer is yes, we actually need our own coroutine code because
we cannot depend on boost to not cut us off at the knees every few
versions.  Maybe when couroutines are available in the standard c++
library, then we can get rid of our library.  Please do not change
coroutine code without a really good reason.

Cheers,

Wayne
