8 - improve portability to slightly older perls.
9 - use cleaner coroutine destruction.

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

25 - incompatible change: transfer flags are now per-state.
26 - give a better error message on deadlock.
27 - document Coro::nready.
28 - enhanced testsuite.

6 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm. 36 - implement a new stack sharing algorithm, which uses a stack
37 pool (size currently hardcoded).
7 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic). 38 - make stack sharing mandatory (it no longer uses a heuristic).
8 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use. 39 - eval/die no longer cause weird problems under heavy use.
9 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but 40 - Coro::Event could cause livelocks if it was used but
10 no Coro::Event watchers were used. 41 no Coro::Event watchers were used.
42 - Coro::Event now uses asynccheck as prepare does not
43 check for changed watchers.
44 - Coro::Event allows multiple waiting coros and will wake up one
45 per event.
11 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now. 46 - Coro::Event should be cleaner and more efficient now.
47 - new utility function Coro::unblock_sub.
12 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant. 48 - document the sad fact that Event is no longer reentrant.
13 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under 49 - putting a coroutine into the ready queue twice could under
14 some circumstances lead to stack corruption. 50 some circumstances lead to stack corruption.
15 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported 51 - minor incompatibility: subclassing Coro::State is supported
16 directly now without going through a _coro_state member. 52 directly now without going through a _coro_state member.
20 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead. 56 - removed timers from Coro::Timer -> use AnyEvent instead.
21 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler. 57 - replaced Coro::idle coroutine by (cleaner) idle handler.
22 - updated to newest libcoro. 58 - updated to newest libcoro.
23 - implement enhanced support for valgrind. 59 - implement enhanced support for valgrind.
24 - implement is_ready and return value for ready. 60 - implement is_ready and return value for ready.
61 - removed Coro::Cont, it was a misnomer (it's generators),
62 and it was somewhat annoying to get it right. Will come back
63 if somebody asks for it :)
25 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return 64 - many ->wait methods and Coro::Event could return
26 spuriously without the event having happened. 65 spuriously without the event having happened.
