4TODO: destroy gets only called on cancel: fix(?)
5TODO: exit in a coroutine should somehow do the real thing. but how?
6TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.

8 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
9 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
10
113.55 Sun Mar 25 01:20:47 CET 2007
12 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
13 it by default.
14 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
15 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
16 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
17 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
18 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
19 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
20 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
21 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
22 performance.
23
243.51 Sun Mar 4 14:18:04 CET 2007
25 - fixed a problem when you weakened references to Coro::State's
26 (patch by Yuval Kogman).
27
283.501 Wed Feb 28 12:44:07 CET 2007
29 - rename some global symbols as macosx from hell redefines
30 them without asking.
31
323.5 Tue Feb 13 20:22:53 CET 2007
33 - do AnyEvent model detection earlier, avoiding problems
34 caused by first using AnyEvent and later Coro::Event.
35 - implement and document Coro::Event event objects.
36 - fix a potential problem in Coro::Event causing crashes.
37 - initialise PL_comppad when creating a new coroutine,
38 avoids crashes on early coro destruction.
39
403.41 Mon Jan 22 19:19:49 CET 2007
41 - readline on Coro::Handle did not support undefined $/,
42 nor did it deliver partial lines on EOF or error.
43 - implement malloc fallback for stack allocation because
44 stupid broken idiotic OSX has a stupid broken
45 idiotic fits-the-whole-os mmap "implementation" and
46 my dick feels longer if Coro is portable even to
47 obsolete platforms.
48
493.4 Fri Jan 19 21:52:54 CET 2007
50 - remove t/09_timer.t, as it isn't really testing much
51 but was rather flaky in practise.
52 - async_pool coro would keep arguments and callback alive until
53 it was reused.
54 - cancellation of a coroutine could cause spurious idle calls
55 in cede_notself.
56
573.3 Sat Jan 6 03:45:00 CET 2007
58 - implement $coro->on_destroy.
59 - Coro::Event blocking semantics have been changed,
60 documented and - hopefully - improved.
61 - fix nice adding, not subtracting, from priority.
62 - fix ->prio and api_is_ready (patch by Mark Hinds).
63 - fixed an assert ("... == prev__cctx->idle_te")
64 that could errronously trigger.
65 - fix various large and small memleaks.
66 - use a (hopefully) more stable cancel implementation
67 that immediately frees the coroutine data.
68 - cede/cede_notself return a status now.
69 - added Coro::guard function.
70 - added a global coroutine pool for jobs (on my machine,
71 I can create and execute 48k simple coros/s with async,
72 and 128k coros with async_pool).
73 - Coro::AIO now uses the coroutine priority as io priority.
74
753.2 Fri Dec 22 05:07:09 CET 2006
76 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
77 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.
78 - simplify configuration for users.
79 - optionally (unrecommended) prefer perl functions over
80 their coro replacements.
81
823.11 Tue Dec 5 13:11:24 CET 2006
83 - fixed some bogus assert's, but as perl.h disables assert even
84 without NDEBUG (thank you very much), not too many people should
85 notice (that did include myself). Andreas König noticed, though :)
86 - do not save/restore PL_sortcxix on >= 5.9.x, it doesn't seem to have
87 it. Also noticed by Andreas König :)
88 - save/restore tainted status.
89 - verified to pass the testsuite on my 5.9.5.

6 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow). 92 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: $/ is now per-coroutine (but slow).
7 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state. 93 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
8 - give a better error message on deadlock. 94 - give a better error message on deadlock.
