10 - avoid segfaulting (or worse) when tracing a canceled thread.
11 - the Event module silently broke it's public hook API, causing
12 failures on perls compiled with -Duselongdouble. Requiring
13 the latest version of Event because I don't know which release
14 changed this (it's not mentioned in the ChangeLog).
15 - allow xs level enterleave hooks via CoroAPI.

176.43 Thu Jun 4 15:38:14 CEST 2015
18 - use stability canary.
19 - port to stableperl-5.22.0-1.001.
20 - update libecb.
21
226.42 Wed Feb 11 20:29:52 CET 2015
23 - Coro::SemaphoreSet->try did not actually work (analyzed by
24 SATO Kentaro).
25 - upgrade libecb to be C11 compliant.
26
276.41 Sat Sep 6 22:08:46 CEST 2014
28 - restore portability to perl 5.8.x.
29 - give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes
30 up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules
31 when used inside a Coro.
32 - allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing
33 as no argument. this works with older versions as well,
34 but wasn't legal until now.
35 - slightly better c header file detection.
36
376.39 Mon Jun 2 00:00:08 CEST 2014
38 - work around more incompatible changes in 5.20.
39
406.38 Sun Jun 1 21:54:23 CEST 2014
41 - check that perl slots actually have enough space to hold
42 interpreter variables.
43 - untested port to perl 5.19 (64 bit tmps indices) (reported
44 by Andreas König).
45 - croak when cancel is called without a thread context.
46
476.37 Tue Mar 4 13:27:33 CET 2014
48 - *sigh*, removed leftover debugging code from debugging a
49 perl bug, of all things.
50
516.36 Tue Mar 4 07:11:59 CET 2014
52 - semaphores would not clear the destroy hook when interrupted
53 by ->throw, causing segfaults or worse.
54 - ->throw on a thread waiting for a semaphore did not acquire
55 the semaphore, but also didn't wake up other waiters,
56 possibly causing a deadlock.
9 - FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself will now use Carp::confess 57 - "FATAL: $Coro::IDLE blocked itself" will now use Carp::confess

11 where the actual call is. 59 where the actual call is.
60 - "atomically" destroy data in slf_destroy, because it is
61 the right thing to do, just in case.
62 - disable ecb.h libm dependency, to compile on ancient systems
63 or under adverse conditions.
