8TODO: redesign Impl 5TODO: log message level redistribute?
9TODO: make ae::run mroe robust against eintr, Andrew Suffield 6TOOD: stop internals abusing
10TODO: IO::Async sometimes cancels the wrong timer when you call cancel_timer -wait for IO::Async release. 7 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: the default log level is now "3" (critical
11TODO: wrap 8 and above), and some emssages inside AnyEvent have bene elevated
12TODO: shell on env 9 to critical, so.
13TODO: parse_unix??? 10 - add google public ipv6 dns as flalback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
14TODO: debug shell pid? 11 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
12 of 127.0.0.1).
13 - give guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
14 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
15 intervals.
16 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
17 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.

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