9 - use a global asm statement to become independent of gcc otpimisations
10 for CORO_ASM (thanks to pippijn for the idea).
11
124.802 Thu Oct 30 10:56:12 CET 2008
13 - support -fno-omit-frame-pointer on x86 with the assembly method.
14 - tune 01_unblock.t tests a bit.
15
164.801 Wed Oct 22 18:33:37 CEST 2008
17 - improve readline speed for very long "lines".
18 - backport to 5.8.8.
19
204.8 Thu Oct 2 13:34:40 CEST 2008
21 - new function Coro::AIO::aio_wait.
22 - Coro.:AIO and Coro::BDB now "use Coro::AnyEvent".
23 - greatly speed up and reduce memory usage of Coro::AIO requests.
24 - implement some other ยต-optimisations.
25
264.749 Mon Sep 29 14:40:12 CEST 2008
27 - port to slow and broken pseudo-threaded perls. (courtesy pippijn).
28
294.748 Sat Sep 27 14:03:19 CEST 2008
30 - implement, but do not document, PerlIO::cede(granularity).
31 - Coro::Storable forgot to wrap Storable::pstore.
32 - work around the multitude of leaks and memory corruption
33 bugs in PerlIO::via by using our own C-level perliol. As a side
34 effect, Coro::Storable is now much, much, much faster.
35
364.747 Tue Sep 23 01:59:41 CEST 2008
37 - fix a per-cv memleak (one empty array was leaked per
38 code reference).
39 - avoid a crash in coro->call|rss when the coroutine was already
40 destroyed (most noticably when using Coro::Debug::ps :)
41 - also protect *Storable::FILE.
42 - push up default storable granularity to 20ms.
43
444.746 Sun Sep 21 03:22:20 CEST 2008
45 - be more insistent on locking Storable against reentrancy
46 in Coro::Storable.
47 - move swap_def?v and throw to Coro::State, as documented.
48
494.745 Thu Jul 24 00:14:38 CEST 2008
50 - remove debugging code related to MgPV_nolen_const, also try to
51 make it compile with perl 5.8.6 (yes, apple apparently loves
52 outdated software). Reported by John S.
53
544.744 Tue Jul 8 22:06:35 CEST 2008
55 - correctly provide default DIE/WARN handlers as documented.
56 - also overwrite PL_vtbl_sigelem.svt_clear, even though current
57 implementations inside perl work fine for us.
58
594.743 Mon Jun 16 00:21:57 CEST 2008
60 - when using Coro::EV without running EV::loop it could
61 result in busy-waiting for events, this has been fixed.
62 - reduce codesize and improve performance by using EV_DEFAULT_UC.
63
644.742 Sat May 31 14:10:21 CEST 2008
65 - implement a workaround for (some) perl <5.8.8 versions.
66 - require EV 3.3+.
67
684.741 Fri May 30 23:33:09 CEST 2008
69 - tell netbsd how utterly broken their imitation of an OS is
70 and refuse to build by default if pthreads are in use.
71 - switch to "s" method on all bsd's by default, as their ucontext
72 stuff seems just too broken.
73 - fix a bug in Coro::Select.
74
754.74 Thu May 29 20:05:31 CEST 2008
76 - do not test Coro::LWP for lack of dependencies.
77 - do not test Coro::Select for lack of working perls.
78
794.73 Thu May 29 2008
80 - fix a bug in Coro::EV which would cause it to block despite
81 there being runnable coroutines.
82 - sprinkle "no warnings" freely over everything, also suppress
83 warnings for some other modules.
84 - fix typo in WSAEWOULDBLOCK.
85
864.72 Sun May 25 05:14:36 CEST 2008
87 - tweak META.yaml a bit, unfortunately, there is no documented way
88 to have optional dependencies with CPAN. doh :(
89 - avoid running some tests on windows because they would fail due to
90 perl bug (broken fork, broken pipes...).
91 - work around perl on windows bugs where perl returns undocumented
92 error codes for sysread, syswrite etc. by taking advantage
93 of AnyEvent's workaround for that problem.
94 - use AnyEvent::Util::fh_nonblocking in Coro::Handle to work around
95 a common perl implementation bug on windows.
96 - use unix domain sockets in testsuite to work around
97 common perl implementation bugs on widows (they are emulated by
98 tcp sockets on windows. ugh.)

9 - fix a bug in Coro::AnyEvent ("Usage: Coro::AnyEvent::_schedule()"). 101 - fix a bug in Coro::AnyEvent ("Usage: Coro::AnyEvent::_schedule()").
10 - take advantage of async name resolution of AnyEvent::Util. 102 - take advantage of async name resolution of AnyEvent::Util.
