9 - NEW ARCHITECTURE: use 4.912 for the stable version.
10 - bump API version to 7 - all dependents must be recompiled.
11 - Coro::Semaphore->adjust didn't correctly wake up enough waiters.
12 - async_pool did free a scalar value twice
13 ("Attempt to unreference...").
14 - perl's process emulation is now not even theoretically supported
15 anymore.
16 - directly patch the entersub opcode calling SLF functions (cede,
17 transfer and so on). this does speed up context switching, but
18 more importanly, it frees us from the hardcoded behaviour of
19 entersub, so we might actually be able to return something from
20 those functions and atcually create new ones.
21 - take advantage of __builtin_frame_address on gcc.
22 - expose THX in coroapi (not sure whether this was a wise decision,
23 as "threaded" perls are running at half speed anyways).
24 - implement execute_slf (schedule-like-function) interface that makes
25 it possible to implement schedule-like-functions in XS.
26 - use new SLF interface to massively speed up Coro::EV by roughly a factor
27 of two.
28 - removed timed_down and timed_guard functions - they were not being used
29 anyways and should be replaced by a more generic mechanism - and were
30 annoying to support anyways :
31 - used new SLF interface to massively speed up Coro::Semaphore by a factor
32 of three.

36 ("Attempt to unreference...").

39 - minor cleanups.
40 - use much larger stacks on linux and perl < 5.8.8.
41 - Coro::Debug::new_unix_server did not unlink the socket
42 when destroyed.

45 - "port" to threaded perls.
