10 - FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself will now use Carp::confess
11 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
12 where the actual call is.

15 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
16 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.
17
186.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
19 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
20 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
21 by Darin McBride).
22
236.31 Thu May 9 07:39:48 CEST 2013
24 - Coro::AIO requests would crash if the thread was ready'd
25 while the request was ongoing.
26
276.29 Wed May 8 02:55:18 CEST 2013
28 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
29 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
30 likely causing a crash.
31
326.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
33 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
34 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
35 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
36 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
37 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
38 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
39 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
40 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
41 this detection cannot work reliably.
42 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
43 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.

50 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
51 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
52 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
53 the testsuite.
54 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
55 improved compatibility with LWP.
