This sounds like a bad idea to me. My man page tells me:

POSIX.1-2008  removes the specifications of makecontext() and
swapcontext(), citing portability issues, and recommending
       that applications be rewritten to use POSIX threads instead.

so such an implementation looks like a dead end to me.
