 =head1 DESCRIPTION
 This module collection manages coroutines. Coroutines are similar
 to threads but don't run in parallel at the same time even on SMP
 is a performance win on Windows machines, and a loss everywhere else).
 In this module, coroutines are defined as "callchain + lexical variables +
 @_ + $_ + $@ + $/ + C stack), that is, a coroutine has its own callchain,
 its own set of lexicals and its own set of perls most important global
-variables.

 This hook is overwritten by modules such as C<Coro::Timer> and
 C<Coro::Event> to wait on an external event that hopefully wake up a
 coroutine so the scheduler can run it.
 Please note that if your callback recursively invokes perl (e.g. for event
-handlers), then it must be prepared to be called recursively.

 Create a new asynchronous coroutine and return it's coroutine object
 (usually unused). When the sub returns the new coroutine is automatically
 terminated.
+See the C<Coro::State::new> constructor for info about the coroutine

 Calling C<exit> in a coroutine will do the same as calling exit outside
 the coroutine. Likewise, when the coroutine dies, the program will exit,
 just as it would in the main program.

 C<async> does. As the coroutine is being reused, stuff like C<on_destroy>
 will not work in the expected way, unless you call terminate or cancel,
 which somehow defeats the purpose of pooling.

+disabled, the description will be reset and the default output filehandle

+be re-used "as-is": most notably if you change other per-coroutine global
+stuff such as C<$/> you need to revert that change, which is most simply
+done by using local as in C< local $/ >.
 The pool size is limited to 8 idle coroutines (this can be adjusted by
 changing $Coro::POOL_SIZE), and there can be as many non-idle coros as
 required.
 If you are concerned about pooled coroutines growing a lot because a
 single C<async_pool> used a lot of stackspace you can e.g. C<async_pool
 { terminate }> once per second or so to slowly replenish the pool. In
 addition to that, when the stacks used by a handler grows larger than 16kb
