9 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
10 big endian systems (reported by many people).
11 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.

14 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
15 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
16 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
17 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
18 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
19 - use fd -1 in mmap.
20 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
21 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.

236.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
24 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
25 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.

276.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
28 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
29 - update ecb.h.

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