33.0 3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's

5as coroutine with higher priority.

11 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
12 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
13 - simplify configuration for users.
14 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
15 their coro replacements.

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

263.1 Mon Dec 4 23:03:40 CET 2006
27 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
28 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
29 - give a better error message on deadlock.
30 - document Coro::nready.
31 - enhanced testsuite.
