This is the mega-ucontext commit. It replaces the task switching mechanism with a new one inspired by ucontext. It works under Linux, OS X and Windows, and is Valgrind clean on Linux and OS X (provided the runtime is built with gcc).
This commit also moves yield and join to the standard library, as requested in #42. Join is currently a no-op though.
