8 - when an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being
9 destructed a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed,
10 likely causing a crash.
11
126.28 Wed Mar 6 06:58:02 CET 2013
13 - clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so
14 they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later
15 (testcase by Andrey Sagulin).
16 - improved Coro::State documentation a bit.
17 - Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output.
18 - add hack detection code for x32 abi, because the braindead slugs
19 who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without
20 providing proper compile time symbols to test for it. as a result,
21 this detection cannot work reliably.
22 - valgrind stack registering was broken.
23 - do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug.
24
256.23 Fri Dec 7 23:36:37 CET 2012
26 - use experimental fiber implementation on native windows
27 perls.
28 - use sizeof (void *) as multiplication factor for stack sizes,
29 to accomodate the totally braindamaged microsoft 64 bit "os".
30 - changed verifier host from win2k-ap510-32 to win7-sp516-32/64.
31 activeperl 5.16 crashes when PerlIO_define_layer is called due
32 to some bug in the perl dll, strawberry perl at least passes
33 the testsuite.
34 - implement Coro::Handle->peeraddr/host/port, for slightly
35 improved compatibility with LWP.
36 - implement 5.17 compatibility by almost blindly applying a
37 good-looking patch by Father Chrysostomos.
38 - move stack management functions into libcoro 3.
39 - libcoro version 3 "released".
40 - support magic values as timed_io_once args.
41 - recommend AnyEvent 7+ or EV 4+, also require EV
42 version 4 or newer for Coro::EV.
43
446.10 Tue Oct 9 01:14:27 CEST 2012
45 - updated ecb.h, it had a typo that caused it to not compile on many
46 big endian systems (reported by many people).
47 - disable memory fences in ecb.h to improve portability.
48
496.09 Sat Oct 6 23:25:02 CEST 2012
50 - Coro::EV I/O watchers were not interruptible by exceptions
51 (Coro::State::throw) (testcase by sten).
52 - ->throw now puts threads into the ready queue, as this seems to
53 be expected by existing code, and code that doesn't cope with spurious
54 wakeups needs fixing anyway.
55 - use fd -1 in mmap.
56 - cast I32 to int in error message printf.
57 - warn about broken so-called "hardened" kernels.
58
596.08 Fri Apr 13 12:05:47 CEST 2012
60 - be more aggressive about exiting like perl does - formerly,
61 exiting from the non-main thread would not execute END blocks.
62
636.07 Fri Nov 11 21:21:48 CET 2011
7 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV). 64 - work around a bug in PerlIO (setting $SIG{__WARN__} to a PVCV).
8 - update ecb.h. 65 - update ecb.h.

11 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads 68 - cygwin unfortunately patches the stack at runtime, so we use the pthreads
