14 - Coro::Semaphore->adjust didn't correctly wake up enough waiters.
15 - async_pool did free a scalar value twice

24 twice as fast now). 30 of two.
31 - removed timed_down and timed_guard functions - they were not being used
32 anyways and should be replaced by a more generic mechanism - and were
33 annoying to support anyways :
34 - used new SLF interface to massively speed up Coro::Semaphore by a factor
35 of three.
36 - forgot to include Coro/libcoro/README in the dist for all these years.
37 - work around a freebsd pthreads bug (manual testcancel is required as
38 pthread_cond_wait isn't a cancellation point on freebsd).
