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

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