85.0
9 - ARCHITECTURAL REDESIGN, use 4.912 for the stable version.
10 - directly patch the entersub opcode calling ssl functions (cede,
11 transfer and so on). this does speed up context switching by
12 up to 10%. More importanly, it frees us from the hardcoded
13 behaviour of entersub, so we might actually be able to return
14 something from those functions.

164.912 Thu Nov 13 18:31:23 CET 2008
17 - minor cleanups.
18 - use much larger stacks on linux and perl < 5.8.8.
19 - Coro::Debug::new_unix_server did not unlink the socket
20 when destroyed.
21
224.911 Tue Nov 11 04:26:17 CET 2008
23 - "port" to threaded perls.

254.91 Mon Nov 10 05:36:38 CET 2008
26 - the ->throw exception object no longer leaks.
27 - creating a new cctx leaked a scopestack entry (memleak).
28 - new coroutines didn't get created with a zero flags field
29 (unknown impact).
30 - calling ->throw on a not-yet-started coroutine should now work
31 instead of being ignored.
32 - ->throw is now supported on Coro::State objects.
33 - clean up cctx creation code a bit.
34 - entersub is actually a UNOP, not a LOGOP (not a bugfix).

37 - (libcoro) did not preserve rbp with CORO_ASM (we are getting there).
38 - (libcoro) no longer leak threads in the experimental pthread backend,
39 also speed it up considerably.
40 - (libcoro) do not rely on makecontext passing void *'s unscathed.
41 - fix compiletime dependencies on libcoro in the Makefile.
42 - cctx_count wasn't always updated properly.
43 - Coro::State::cctx_stacksize wasn't applied correctly.
44 - new function Coro::State::cctx_max_idle.
45 - the default max number of idle C contexts is now 4.
46 - (libcoro) try harder to get _setjmp/_longjmp.
47 - (libcoro) cleanup and extend the libcoro API to officially
48 allow the creation of empty source contexts.
49 - very experimental workaround for the totally broken netbsd platform.
50 - tried to hack around openbsd bugs.

524.804 Wed Nov 5 16:36:00 CET 2008
53 - Coro::Debug::new_unix_server would not create a non-blocking listening
54 socket, sometimes causing freezes.
55 - (libcoro) fix misaligned stack points for setjmp and assembly
56 methods, which can cause crashes on x86/x86_64 with a sufficiently
57 aggressive compiler.
58 - new function: Coro::Debug::new_tcp_server.
8 - move ->throw into the Coro class because it only works on coro objects. 59 - move ->throw into the Coro class because it only works on coro objects.

11 - use a global asm statement to become independent of gcc otpimisations 62 - (libcoro) use a global asm statement to become independent of gcc
12 for CORO_ASM (thanks to pippijn for the idea). 63 otpimisations for CORO_ASM (thanks to pippijn for the idea).
13 - try to workaround yet another broken bsd, this time dragonfly. 64 - try to workaround yet another broken bsd, this time dragonfly.

16 - support -fno-omit-frame-pointer on x86 with the assembly method. 67 - support -fno-omit-frame-pointer on x86 with the assembly method.
17 - tune 01_unblock.t tests a bit. 68 - tune 01_unblock.t tests a bit.
