7 - croak when a coro being cancelled tries to block (e.g. while
8 executing a guard block), instead of crashing or deadlocking.
9 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
10 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.
11 - implement Coro->cancel in XS for a 20% speed improvement, and to
12 be able to implement mutual cancellation.
13 - speed up context switches by a percent or two by more efficiently
14 allocating context stack entries.
15 - cancelling a coro while it itself is cancelling another coro is
16 now supported and working, instead of triggering an assertion.
17 - be a bit more crash-resistant when calling (buggy) on_destroy
18 callbacks (best effort).
19 - move on_destroy into the slf_frame, to allow extension slf
20 functions to have destructors.

23 - apparently mingw doesn't provide a working gettimeofday, try to
24 work around that by relying on Time::HiRes (indirectly brought to
25 my attention by Max Maischein).
26 - fix some portability issues when Time::HiRes was used.

7 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro". 32 - add a big "Coro thread life cycle" section to "man Coro".
8 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has 33 - try a tentative workaround against the breakage that 5.13 has
9 introduced without depreciation period. sigh. 34 introduced without depreciation period. sigh.
35 - no longer use Time::HiRes if gettimeofday is available, which
36 saves quite a lot of memory.
