| Sanitizers (GCC/Clang) are confused by the stack switches. | ||
| The library (and Boost.Context too) is required to be compiled with property (b2 command-line) | ||
| `context-impl=ucontext` and compilers santizer options. |

santizer -> sanitizer (typo)
compilers -> compiler (it's 1 compiler at a time)

This is technically incorrect because there are no defines "when linking against Boost binaries"
Updated sanitizer documentation to include relevant b2 options.
