10 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }). 10 destroyed and cleaned up automatically (e.g. async { schedule }).
11 - implement a JIT compiler for part of the thread switch code,
12 which gives a 50% speed improvement on threaded perls, and
13 about 4% on non-thraeded perls (so threaded perls now finally
14 reach about half the speed of non-threaded perls).
15 - avoid DEFSV and ERRSV, giving another 10% improvement
16 in thread switching.
11 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie. 17 - Coro::State->is_destroyed is now called is_zombie.
12 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but 18 - implement a Coro->safe_cancel method that might fail, but
13 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds. 19 cancels in a "safer" way if it succeeds.

44 - document alternatives to Coro::LWP. Please use them :)
45 - work around another mindless idiotic NEEDLESS bug in openbsd/mirbsds
46 sigaltstack. Really. wine suffers from it, erlang suffers from it,
47 and its' known since at least 2006.
