84.0 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.

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.

12 - unbelievable, but true: $_, $@ and many other "saved" variables 45 - major bug fix: unbelievable, but true: $_, $/ and many other
13 actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed, of course, 46 "saved" variables actually weren't being saved. This has been fixed,
14 while increasing performance while losing all the save flags. 47 of course, while increasing performance while losing all the save
48 flags.
15 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them. 49 - save flags are gone, and all the api functions dealing with them.
