you have to read it as a sentence :)  file* included from mtasker.hh, line 107, which was included from syncres.hh, line 20, which was included from syncres.cc, line 20.  file* is: mtasker:cc.  confuses me also all the time.

the problem here basically is an incomprehensible error message which translates to:

"no declaration for swapcontext()!!1"

from ucontext(3):

BUGS
    The getcontext(), setcontext(), makecontext(), and swapcontext() func-
    tions are not yet implemented in this version of DragonFly.

there we go :)  maybe somebody wants to import this functionality from freebsd?
