8TODO: general log level "cap"
9TODO: timer increase for arm(?)
10 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "4" (error
11 and above), and some messages inside AnyEvent have been elevated
12 to higher log levels to print by default.
13 - AnyEvent::log, unlike AnyEvent::Log::log, did not always exit on fatal.
14 - work around yet another signal race bug, newly introduced by POE. My
15 how that module sucks.
16 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
17 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
18 of 127.0.0.1).
19 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
20 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
21 intervals.
22 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
23 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
24 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
25 - new env variable PERL_ANYEVENT_MAX_SIGNAL_LATENCY.
26 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
27 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
28 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
29 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
30 AnyEvent.

33 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
34 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
35 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
36 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
37 to work around.
38 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.

107 - suppress the idiotic warning inside POE by patching the POE::Kernel
108 run flags instead of asking the user to jump through contortions.
109 - add Task::Weaken as dependency (as recommends only at this time).
110 - replace PF_UNSPEC by 0, for good old minix.
