18 - don't set diehook to C<undef> but instead to NULL, to avoid
19 spurious warnings.

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

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

44 - wrote a small introductory tutorial - Coro::Intro.
8 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API. 45 - convert Coro::Timer, Coro::Select and Coro::Util to rouse API.

10 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends. 47 and didn't work with all AnyEvent backends.
48 - Coro::Select wasn't imported correctly form Coro::LWP, causing blocking
49 LWP data transfers.
11 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more 50 - disassociate c contexts from coro objects - this is agruably more

14 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default. 53 - bumped $Coro::POOL_RSS up to 32kb by default.

16 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub). 55 doesn't like this very much (and we *are* a type of entersub).
17 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done. 56 - implement state cloning, just to prove that call/cc can be done.
57 - automatically load Coro::AnyEvent in Coro::Handle.
58 - wrap ->cancel calls in eval inside Coro::Handle as EV watchers
59 do not have this method (and don't need it either).
60 - speed up generic anyevent methods in Coro::Handle by using rouse
61 callbacks.
62 - allow coroutines in $Coro::IDLE, speeding up Coro::AnyEvent and
63 others. It also makes the debugger happier, as you can trace
64 through the idle threads now.
65 - add comppad_name* and hints ($^H, %^H) to per-thread variables.
66 - eg/event was pretty broken.
18 - better 5.8.6 compatibility. 67 - better 5.8.6 compatibility.
