9 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
10 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
11 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).
12 - work around stupid (and wrong) warning on 5.10 :(.
13 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
14 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
15 speeds up context switching a bit.
16 - further tune default stack sizes.
17 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
18 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
19 resulting in races between coroutines.
20 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
21 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
22 an unrelated coroutine.
23 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
24 more detail in Coro::State.
25 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
26 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
27 - sped up Coro::Event next event handling by 15%, uses less memory.
28 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
29 invalidating pointers.

32 - added Coro::throw method.
33 - minor code cleanups.

13 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated. 40 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
41 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
42 about 2-5% speed improvement here.
