7TODO: add debug/trace logging to some modules
8TODO: poe child watcher hang?
9TODO: max syslog level,e xg says to cap?
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 - add google public ipv6 dns as fallback servers, so AE::DNS can finally
15 support ipv6-only operation even with defaults (also use ::1 instead
16 of 127.0.0.1).
17 - give better guidelines on how to chose a logging level.
18 - AE::Strict now checks that registered fds are still valid at regular
19 intervals.
20 - skip frequently called 'require' calls if the module appears loaded.
21 - increase signal latency test timer considerably for poor little osx.
22 - mention some debugging aids in the tutorial.
23 - detect the extremely evil IO::Async::Loop::AnyEvent module and refuse
24 to work with it - the author is well aware of the issues but refuses
25 to fix them. This extreme step has been taken because the module actively
26 attacks the goals of AnyEvent and makes it harder for module authors to use
27 AnyEvent.

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