8 - enable/disable tracing from a new coroutine, not a pooled one.
9 - fix a memleak in Coro::Event.
10 - removed killall call from fork_eval.
11 - made sure store_fd is already loaded so that fork_eval
12 does not have to parse autoload in each subprocess.
13 - only use assembly method if -O switch is in $Config{optimize}.
14# - if the event model is EV, use EV::DNS to resolve
15# stuff in Coro::Util.
16 - don't get confused by multiple event notifications in Coro::Handle.
17 - initial support for EV (libevent interface).

20 - add Coro::Storable::blocking_thaw.
21 - use a vastly more complicated technique to localise
22 $SIG{__WARN/DIE__} that also works on perls <= 5.8.8.
23 - use a coroutine for the idle callback Coro::Event,
24 instead of running Event in the current coroutine context.
25 This also catches recursive invocations.
26 - actually report fork errors in gethostbyname and inet_aton.

29 - port to threaded perls.

9 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now 32 - incompatible change: $SIG{__DIE__} and $SIG{__WARN__} will now
10 be local to each coro (see Coro::State). 33 be local to each coro (see Coro::State).
34 - incompatible change: for very deep reasons, cede and cede_notself
35 cannot return anything, so nothing will be returned.
11 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested). 36 - possibly bring back 5.10 compatibility (untested).

13 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves 38 - overlay the saved state over the context stack. This saves
14 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also 39 a few hundred bytes per coroutine on average and also
15 speeds up context switching a bit. 40 speeds up context switching a bit.
41 - further tune default stack sizes.
16 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss. 42 - (more) correctly calculate stack usage in coro_rss.
43 - Coro::Storable::blocking_* did not properly lock
44 resulting in races between coroutines.
45 - added Coro::Storable::guard.
46 - stopping to trace a coroutine could destroy the cctx of
47 an unrelated coroutine.
48 - explain the relationship between Perl and C coroutines in
49 more detail in Coro::State.
50 - Coro::Util::inet_aton did not short-circuit dotted quad forms,
51 causing a fork per resolve. This also affected Coro::Socket.
52 - switch to a separate stack in $coro->call/eval to avoid
53 invalidating pointers.
