10 - bump minimum perl version to 5.10.
11
126.48 Sun Oct 4 19:03:51 CEST 2015
13 - fix memory leak when Coro::Handle uses Coro::EV internally
14 (testcase by Sten Sten).
15 - update code to libev 4 API (internally, Coro still used the
16 version 3 API calls).
17 - remove unused hv_sig.
18
196.47 Sat Jul 11 03:58:20 CEST 2015
20 - swap_svs - NVs can be in the SV head beginning with 5.20.
21
226.46 Tue Jun 30 14:36:30 CEST 2015
23 - restore portability to perls with windows fork emulation
24 (patch by Petr Písař).
25
266.45 Tue Jun 30 01:40:08 CEST 2015
27 - restore portability to perl 5.16 and below.
28
296.44 Tue Jun 30 00:41:54 CEST 2015
30 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
31 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
32 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
33 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
34 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
35 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.
36
376.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
38 - use stability canary.
39 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
40 - update libecb.
41
426.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
43 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
44 SATO Kentaro).
45 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
46
476.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
48 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
49 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
50 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
51 when used inside a Coro.
52 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
53 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
54 but wasn't legal until now.
55 - slightly better c header file detection.
56
576.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
58 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
59
606.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
61 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
62 interpreter variables.
63 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
64 by Andreas König).
65 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
66
676.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
68 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
69 perl bug, of all things.
70
716.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
72 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
73 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
74 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
75 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
76 possibly causing a deadlock.
77 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess
78 to report a full stacktrace, which should help find out
79 where the actual call is.
80 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
81 the right thing to do, just in case.
82 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
83 or under adverse conditions.
84
856.33 Mon Nov 18 11:26:27 CET 2013
86 - do not crash when freeing padlists with holes (in 5.18).
87 - tentative SVt_BIND 5.19 port/fix.

96.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013 896.32 Tue Nov 5 15:35:35 CET 2013
10 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old 90 - use a new algorithm to derive padlists for perl 5.18. The old
11 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported 91 one could lead to 0-pointer accesses inside perl (reported
12 by Darin McBride). 92 by Darin McBride).
