8TODO: parse_unix??? 5TODO: ae::strict, regulalry check for invalid fds?
9TODO: logging? / trace_level 6TOOD: stop internals abusing
10TODO: check wrap for leaks - check Carp::longmess for leaks, or rather, how to avoid them 7TODO: add google ipv6 public dns
8 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "3" (critical
9 and above), and some emssages inside AnyEvent have bene elevated
10 to critical, so.
11 - add google public ipv6 dns as flalback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
12 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
13 of 127.0.0.1).
14 - give guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
15 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
16 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.

19 - log_to_syslog now accepts facility strings.
20 - log_to_syslog would not allow facilities - "$facility|$level"
21 *literally* means that string. sheesh.
22 - the CPAN parser got confused and thought we provide Sys::Syslog, try
23 to work around.
24 - renamed AnyEvent::Impl::FLTK2 to FLTK.
