Revision history for Perl extension EV

        - reduced fudge factor to zero for select, poll, epoll
          and kqueue: your system better be posix-compliant
          even in its extensions :->

1.72 Sat Dec  8 15:31:26 CET 2007
        - add dummy loop arguments to some EVAPI functions
          so that clients can use EV_A and EV_DEFAULT.
        - expose ev_clear_pending.
        - renamed trigger to invoke.

1.71 Fri Dec  7 19:10:24 CET 2007
        - changed/implemented idle watcher priority.
        - allow out-of-range priorities to be set.
        - fix ->priority to actually work on started watchers.
        - improved testsuite.

1.6  Wed Dec  5 15:06:20 CET 2007
        - add a missing SPAGAIN.
        - ripped out EV::DNS, use EV::ADNS for a better backend.
        - make ev_time callable from EVAPI.h.
        - add EV::loop_count.
        - some space optimisations.

1.5  Wed Nov 28 20:19:09 CET 2007
        - add inotify backend.
        - make testsuite even less sensible to timing issues,
          add more stat tests.
        - add ->attr, ->prev, ->stat calls to stat watcher.

1.4  Tue Nov 27 17:35:27 CET 2007
        - work around a linux 2.4 kernel bug in child handlers.
        - implement stat watcher interface.
        - implement fork watcher interface.
        - io->set did not keep the fh alive.
        - actively check signal numbers/names to be valid.
        - cleanups, minor fixes, new bugs.
        - work around windows bugs in the testsuite.

1.3  Sun Nov 25 10:46:57 CET 2007
        - stopping idle/check/prepare watchers could cause data corruption.
        - implement and document EV::once.
        - improved documentation, verify that netbsd indeed has the only
          working kqueue implementation (out of darwin, freebsd, netbsd and
          openbsd). Praise them!
        - fix the data method so it might work.
        - expose ev_ref/ev_unref to the C API.
        - expose ref/unref in form of the ->keepalive method to perl.
        - minor bugfixes and portability fixes.

1.2  Thu Nov 22 05:44:09 CET 2007
        - disable kqueue by default on !netbsd, as its broken on freebsd,
          darwin and openbsd and thus almost everywhere.
        - add some allowance in t/01_timer.t for the uneven monotonic
          vs. realtime clock tick on at least freebsd.
        - add -lsocket -lnsl on solaris in case the perl guy forgot to
          configure them.

1.1  Wed Nov 21 06:08:48 CET 2007
        - improved timer test to include periodics and
          withstand small timing variations.
        - many minor tweaks to libev.

1.0  Fri Nov 16 14:51:59 CET 2007
        - require AnyEvent update if AnyEvent is installed.
        - add solaris 10 port-based backend.
        - add child_ns and fix check_ns.
        - treat yes/no as enforcement, not as hint, when configuring,
          documentation update (reported by Andy Grundman).

0.9  Wed Nov 14 22:24:49 CET 2007
        - changed LIBEV_METHODS to LIBEV_FLAGS and the
          way this is used inside libev.
        - many, many bugfixes.
        - add unloop constants.
        - add timer test.
        - ev_loop will now terminate immediately when no watchers are active.

0.8  Mon Nov 12 02:28:46 CET 2007
        - fix "testsuite" again :().
        - fix check/idle/prepare/child watcher stop.
        - enourmously many fixes.
        - rewritten select backend (mostly for win32).
        - cache socket handles on win32.
        - provide considerably finer control over configuration.

0.7  Fri Nov  9 20:37:58 CET 2007
        - move AnyEvent adaptor into the AnyEvent module.
        - use private copy of evdns.[ch].
        - many minor fixes.

0.6  Thu Nov  8 18:23:43 CET 2007
        - better native win32 support (not relevant for perl usually).
        - fix idle watchers.
        - implement and document periodic reschedule callbacks.
        - do not run dns test on !linux platforms (actually to exclude win32).
        - fix (unused in EV :) poll backend.

0.51 Tue Nov  6 19:50:22 CET 2007
        - fix kqueue/poll compilation issue.
        - work around design issues in kqueue.
        - enable kqueue by default, seems to work.

0.5  Tue Nov  6 17:37:44 CET 2007
        - add signal and pid mutators.
        - add rstatus/rpid accessors.
        - updated libev (lower cost for clock monotonic).
        - support event priorities.
        - try to find SIG_SIZE on perls that don't have it (Slaven Rezic).
        - improved signal handling, fixed child watchers.
        - experimentally add kqueue backend, completely untested.
        - ported to cygwin and native win32.

0.1   Thu Nov  1 18:29:22 CET 2007
        - replaced libevent by libev (total rewrite).
        - many bugfixes w.r.t. libevent.
        - new watcher types: periodic, check, prepare, child, idle.
        - performance optimisations.
        - added interactive configuration.
        - added fork support.

0.03  Mon Oct 29 20:52:50 CET 2007
        - add timed_io convenience constructors.
        - improve documentation.
        - support signal names in addition to signal numbers.
        - support signal anyevent watchers.
        - vastly improved testsuite (its all relative :).
        - add EV::MakeMaker, beginning of C-level API.
        - force strings to byte form.

0.02  Sun Oct 28 07:40:21 CET 2007
        - call $EV::DIED in case a callback throws an exception.
        - add const char * to typemap for possible 5.6 compatibility.
