+Subject: [PATCH] Fix ABI violation on ppc64 ELFv2, fixes #72
+
+The existing ontop_fcontext implementation for ppc64 ELFv2
+violates the ABI by not storing the callback entry address
+in %r12 before branching. This results in crashes on this
+platform.
+
+This commit addresses this and allows the context library
+to function as expected on ppc64 platforms using the ELFv2 ABI.
