3TODO: better (earlier) error messages on broken transfer's 3TODO: should explore PerlIO::via::CoroCede and PerlIO::via::CoroAIO.
4TODO: destroy gets only called on cancel: fix(?) 4TODO: maybe implement a default message channel, very much like Erlang
5 (which is cool in a lot of important aspects (failures!),
6 but very lacking in others (higher level ipc)).

63.52 84.0
9 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.
10 - major new feature: added Coro::Debug, for interactive coroutine
11 debugging, tracing and much more.
12 - major bug fix: unbelievable, but true: $_, $/ and many other
13 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
14 of course, while increasing performance while losing all the save
15 flags.
16 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them.
17 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
18 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.
19 - added Coro::Storable::{nfreeze,blocking_{freeze,nfreeze}}.
20 - added Coro::killall.
21 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
22 - better async_pool resource management, moved parts of async_pool
23 handling to XS (major speed improvement).
24 - actually croak before modifying important data structures.
25 - refuse to transfer while compiling.
26 - possibly support eval EXPR better now.
27 - enable assembly per default on linux+bsd x86+amd64.
28 - all internal members were renamed _something for easier subclassing.
29 - many minor tweaks.

313.63 Wed May 16 14:10:06 CEST 2007
32 - implement handcoded assembly for x86/amd64 SVR ABI.
33
343.62 Fri Apr 27 21:36:06 CEST 2007
35 - upgrade libcoro (which might set unwind info correctly).
36 - change default on linux to setjmp/longjmp.
37
383.61 Thu Apr 19 12:36:18 CEST 2007
39 - Coro::Storable caused an endless loop when thawing invalid
40 pst's sometimes.
41 - use a Semaphore in Coro::Storable, as Storable doesn't
42 seem to be reentrant (although it is documented to
43 be threadsafe...).
44 - fix Coro::Signal to bring back the original unreliable
45 but stateful semantics.
46 - fixed a lot of typos in Coro.pm (patch submitted by David
47 Steinbrunner, which applied flawlessly).

493.6 Sat Apr 14 17:13:31 CEST 2007
50 - added some bugfixes to get eg/myhttpd working again.
51 - added Coro::Storable for often-cede'ing freeze/thaw.
52 - try to do a clean exit when a coroutine calls exit
53 (EXPERIMENTAL).
54 - got rid of indirect call through _coro_init.
55 - updated the partly antique examples in eg/ to
56 work again and be a bit less magic, too.
57 - fixed Coro::Signal semantics to work as documented again.

60 - add SAVE_DEFFH to save the default filehandle and enable
61 it by default.
62 - finally move socket-operations from Coro::Socket to Coro::Handle
63 to be able to unblock foreign sockets.
64 - add Coro::State::save_also and guarded_save.
7 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore. 65 - add count accessor to Coro::Semaphore.
8 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize. 66 - add Coro::State::cctx_stacksize.
9 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context, 67 - just for the fun of it, do not rely on implicit context,
10 which can dramatically improve performance, but people 68 which can dramatically improve performance, but people
11 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about 69 using windows-process-emulation perls do not care much about
