Hi Mike, Christoph, and Derick,

To add a bit more information:

These asm files are part of the low-level boost.context lib, found here: 
https://github.com/boostorg/context

This library has infrequent releases. Some of the files for old architectures 
have not changed in several years. Keeping these files up-to-date will not be a 
burden (and I plan to assume this responsibility).

The Boost license is extremely permissive and approved by the OSI, so there is 
no problem bundling with PHP.

Hopefully that provides some clarification and you’ll reconsider your vote Mike.

Cheers!
Aaron Piotrowski
