83.8 84.1
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.

244.03 Sat Oct 6 21:24:00 CEST 2007
25 - added Coro::throw method.
26 - minor code cleanups.
27
284.02 Sat Oct 6 02:36:47 CEST 2007
29 - fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
30 - fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed
31 prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize
32 or use tracing).
33 - tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
34 - do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives
35 about 2-5% speed improvement here.

374.01 Fri Oct 5 22:10:49 CEST 2007
38 - instead of recreating *a* standard output handle we simply
39 use STDOUT, which is faster and hopefully more robust.

11 debugging, tracing and much more. 44 debugging, tracing and much more.
45 - major bug fix: unbelievable, but true: $_, $/ and many other
46 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
47 of course, while increasing performance while losing all the save
48 flags.
49 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them.
12 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust. 50 - added Coro::Semaphore::adjust.
13 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval. 51 - added Coro::Util::fork_eval.

15 - added Coro::killall. 53 - added Coro::killall.
16 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines". 54 - reduce initial stack sizes to allow for "micro-coroutines".
