1152	As Pauli would put it, "Not only is it not right, it's not even wrong!" -
1153	there are so many things wrong with AnyEvent::Handle::UDP, most notably
1154	its use of a stream-based API with a protocol that isn't streamable, that
1155	the only way to improve it is to delete it.
1156
1157	It features data corruption (but typically only under load) and general
1158	confusion. On top, the author is not only clueless about UDP but also
1159	fact-resistant - some gems of his understanding: "connect doesn't work
1160	with UDP", "UDP packets are not IP packets", "UDP only has datagrams, not
1161	packets", "I don't need to implement proper error checking as UDP doesn't
1162	support error checking" and so on - he doesn't even understand what's
1163	wrong with his module when it is explained to him.

		2042	loaded.
1913		2043

1916	enabled.	2046	namespace. Other modules are encouraged (but by no means required) to use
		2047	C<PERL_ANYEVENT_SUBMODULE> if they have registered the AnyEvent::Submodule
		2048	namespace on CPAN, for any submodule. For example, L<AnyEvent::HTTP> could
		2049	be expected to use C<PERL_ANYEVENT_HTTP_PROXY> (it should not access env
		2050	variables starting with C<AE_>, see below).
		2051
		2052	All variables can also be set via the C<AE_> prefix, that is, instead
		2053	of setting C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE> you can also set C<AE_VERBOSE>. In
		2054	case there is a clash btween anyevent and another program that uses
		2055	C<AE_something> you can set the corresponding C<PERL_ANYEVENT_something>
		2056	variable to the empty string, as those variables take precedence.
		2057
		2058	When AnyEvent is first loaded, it copies all C<AE_xxx> env variables
		2059	to their C<PERL_ANYEVENT_xxx> counterpart unless that variable already
		2060	exists. If taint mode is on, then AnyEvent will remove I<all> environment
		2061	variables starting with C<PERL_ANYEVENT_> from C<%ENV> (or replace them
		2062	with C<undef> or the empty string, if the corresaponding C<AE_> variable
		2063	is set).
		2064
		2065	The exact algorithm is currently:
		2066
		2067	1. if taint mode enabled, delete all PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz variables from %ENV
		2068	2. copy over AE_xyz to PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz unless the latter alraedy exists
		2069	3. if taint mode enabled, set all PERL_ANYEVENT_xyz variables to undef.
		2070
		2071	This ensures that child processes will not see the C<AE_> variables.
		2072
		2073	The following environment variables are currently known to AnyEvent:
1917		2074
1918	=over 4	2075	=over 4
1919		2076
1920	=item C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE>	2077	=item C<PERL_ANYEVENT_VERBOSE>
1921		2078
1922	By default, AnyEvent will be completely silent except in fatal	2079	By default, AnyEvent will log messages with loglevel C<4> (C<error>) or

1924	talkative.	2081	numerical loglevel to make AnyEvent more (or less) talkative.
1925		2082
		2083	If you want to do more than just set the global logging level
		2084	you should have a look at C<PERL_ANYEVENT_LOG>, which allows much more
		2085	complex specifications.
		2086
		2087	When set to C<0> (C<off>), then no messages whatsoever will be logged with
		2088	everything else at defaults.
		2089

		2245
		2246	Some event loops are racy, but don't poll regularly, and some event loops
