9 - port to threaded perls.

114.1 Thu Oct 11 02:38:16 CEST 2007
12 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
13 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
14 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
15 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
16 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
17 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
18 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
19 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
20 speeds up context switching a bit.
21 - further tune default stack sizes.
22 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
23 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
24 resulting in races between coroutines.
25 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
26 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
27 an unrelated coroutine.
28 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
29 more detail in Coro::State.
30 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
31 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
32 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
33 invalidating pointers.
34
354.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
36 - added Coro::throw method.
37 - minor code cleanups.
38
394.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
40 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
41 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
42 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
43 or use tracing).
44 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
45 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
46 about 2-5% speed improvement here.
47
484.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
49 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
50 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.

9 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze. 53 - incompatibly changed Coro::Storable::freeze.

13 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed, 57 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
