8 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
9 - update ecb.h.

12 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
13 backend, which is an order of magnitude slower. unfortunately, cygwins
14 pthread implementation isn't very complete either, so allocate the stack
15 twice just to be sure.
16 (note: cygwin also enables mymalloc, which is NOT THREADSAFE ON WINDOWS,
17 in its ithreaded perl - best recompile cygwin and use the 'w'indows
18 backend for much better performance. also disable ithreads for
19 even better performance...).

22 - blush, condvar values would not be propagated from send to recv anymore
23 (reported by Chip Salzenberg).
24 - use exponential increase for the readline buffer length in
25 Coro::Handle. also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes.
26
276.04 Wed Aug 3 17:15:45 CEST 2011
28 - use even more efficient and more compatible condvars for
29 compatibility to AnyEvent 6.x :)
30 - more inconsequential ecb.h updates.
31
326.03 Wed Aug 3 11:41:30 CEST 2011
33 - change how Coro patches AnyEvent condvars for compatibility to
34 AnyEvent 6.x.
35 - update ecb.h, to no longer include <pthread.h> in case WinNT.h
36 hasn't been included.

39 - "improve portability to Gentoo" - gentoo manages to put perl variables
40 in memory areas that are farther than 2gb apart, which the jit couldn't
41 handle and barfed. now it's just a bit slower on gentoo and similar
42 systems.

8 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used 45 - workarounds are good, but the test for whether pthreads are used
9 was not good. thisone should be better. 46 was not good. thisone should be better.
10 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself. 47 - check differently whether gcc generates cfi instructions itself.
