185.13
19 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
20 spurious warnings.
21 - fix a lot of bugs in Coro::SemaphoreSet.
22 - Coro::SemaphoreSet will less often create a semaphore needlessly.
23 - add Coro::SemaphoreSet::count and wait methods.
24 - take advantage of the new Guard module.
25 - deprecate Coro::guard.

275.12 Sun Dec 7 13:30:38 CET 2008
28 - add default config for MirOS, which seems to be a bug-to-bug
29 compatible fork of openbsd ("world domination by releasing
30 openbsd cvs before the openbsd folks do it" or so :).
31 - free_padlist did destroy the names pad, not good, but didn't
32 seem to bother perl - this could fix issues such as eval ""
33 inside a function called from multiple coroutines.
34 - use a different method to detect destruction time.
35 - be more careful when freeing padlists just before global
36 destruction.
37 - fixed and expanded the call/cc example.
38 - renamed _terminate to _coro_run.
39 - new method Coro::Channel->shutdown.
40 - try pthreads on openbsd <4.4 (broken sigaltstack, will
41 pthreads fare better?).
42 - be less picky about destroying "a" running coroutine.

445.11 Tue Nov 25 21:49:05 CET 2008
45 - DEBUGGING in 5.10.0 is a mess: it constantly flags perfectly
46 working code with failed assertions, introducing more bugs than
47 it fixes, requiring elaborate workarounds :(

495.1 Mon Nov 24 08:54:59 CET 2008
50 - wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.
8 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API. 51 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API.
9 - Coro::Select did errornously dup the file descriptors 52 - Coro::Select did errornously dup the file descriptors
10 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends. 53 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends.
54 - Coro::Select wasn't imported correctly form Coro::LWP, causing blocking
55 LWP data transfers.
56 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more
57 correct, but mostly allows sharing of cctxs between coro and state
58 objects, for added memory savings and speed increases.
59 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default.
60 - no longer set the optype to OP_CUSTOM, as B::* understandably
61 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub).
62 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done.
63 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent in Coro::Handle.
64 - wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers
65 do not have this method (and don't need it either).
66 - speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
67 callbacks.
68 - allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
69 others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
70 through the idle threads now.
71 - add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
72 - eg/event was pretty broken.
73 - better 5.8.6 compatibility.
