3TODO: check wether stack-sharing is still effective
4TODO: more effective stack sharing by having one "default stack" for "simple" coroutines?
5TODO: verify exception frame changes and force stack copies?

7 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
8 Event watchers were used directly.
9 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
10 - minor incompatibility: subclassing is supported directly now
11 without going through a _coro_state member.
12 - process swicthing is much faster now.
13 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
14 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
15 - possibly better support for threads.
16 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
17 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.

192.5 Tue Nov 7 12:22:33 CET 2006
20 - made Coro::Util, Coro::Select, Coro::Handle and Coro::Socket
21 use AnyEvent, moved them to Coro/.
22 - added Coro::LWP which contains all the uglyness required to
23 make LWP non-blocking.
24 - should work with perl 5.9.x now (Andreas König made me do it).
25 - fixed another bug in Coro::Select when the timeout was undef.
26 - reuse PL_start_env for all coros, saves some memory per coroutine.
27 - manage PL_top_env differently, hopefully to avoid panic: top_env.
28 - timeout argument was not properly used in Coro::Socket.
29 - allow limited forms of subclassing in Coro::Handle/Coro::Socket.
30 - emulate undocumented(!) functionality of IO::Socket required
31 by LWP(!!).
32 - updated eg/lwp to work with newer lwp's.
33 - remove "FATAL: uncaught exception" prefix. Coroutines that die
34 kill the whole process, just as exceptions in the main "coroutine"
35 did already.
36
372.1 Wed Nov 1 23:01:13 CET 2006
38 - fix a long-standing bug in Coro::Select where select with
39 zero timeout would instead change the current default filehandle.
40 - use a simpler and hopefully more robust way to clone padlists
41 (uses less memory and a perl function instead of our own).
42 - coro can now create a stack guard area on many architectures.
43 - Coro::AIO properly reexports additional functions from IO::AIO.
44 - updated libcoro with a workaround for OS X,
45 pach and testing by Michael Schwern.
