8TODO: CF_RUNNING makes sense only for Coros, not States
9 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
10 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
11 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
12 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
13 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
14 inside a function called form multiple coroutines.
15 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
16 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
17 destruction.
18 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
19 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.

22 - DEBUGGING in 5.10.0 is a mess: it constantly flags perfectly
23 working code with failed assertions, introducing more bugs than
24 it fixes, requiring elaborate workarounds :(

27 - wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.
8 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API. 28 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API.

10 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends. 30 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends.
31 - Coro::Select wasn't imported correctly form Coro::LWP, causing blocking
32 LWP data transfers.
33 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more
34 correct, but mostly allows sharing of cctxs between coro and state
35 objects, for added memory savings and speed increases.
36 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default.
37 - no longer set the optype to OP_CUSTOM, as B::* understandably
38 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub).
39 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done.
40 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent in Coro::Handle.
41 - wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers
42 do not have this method (and don't need it either).
43 - speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
44 callbacks.
45 - allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
46 others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
47 through the idle threads now.
48 - add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
49 - eg/event was pretty broken.
50 - better 5.8.6 compatibility.
