3 - minor documentation cleanup. 3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's

53.11 Tue Dec 5 13:11:24 CET 2006
6 - fixed some bogus assert's, but as perl.h disables assert even
7 without NDEBUG (thank you very much), not too many people should
8 notice (that did include myself). Andreas König noticed, though :)
9 - do not save/restore PL_sortcxix on >= 5.9.x, it doesn't seem to have
10 it. Also noticed by Andreas König :)
11 - save/restore tainted status.
12 - verified to pass the testsuite on my 5.9.5.

15 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
16 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
17 - give a better error message on deadlock.
18 - document Coro::nready.
19 - enhanced testsuite.

22 - forgot to include Coro::Timer.

243.0 Sun Dec 3 22:57:25 CET 2006
25 - the "FINALLY COMPLETELY STABLE" release (coming soon:
26 the "FAMOUS LAST WORDS" release).
27 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm, which uses a stack
28 pool (size currently hardcoded).
29 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
30 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
31 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
32 no Coro::Event watchers were used.
33 - Coro::Event now uses asynccheck as prepare does not
34 check for changed watchers.
35 - Coro::Event allows multiple waiting coros and will wake up one
36 per event.
37 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
38 - new utility function Coro::unblock_sub.
39 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant.
40 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under
41 some circumstances lead to stack corruption.
42 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported
43 directly now without going through a _coro_state member.
44 - state/coro switching is much faster now.
45 - very minor optimisations and code/documentation cleanup.
46 - avoid problems due to compiler inlining.
47 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
48 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
49 - updated to newest libcoro.
50 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.
51 - implement is_ready and return value for ready.
52 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
53 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
54 if somebody asks for it :)
55 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return
56 spuriously without the event having happened.
