3 - (libev) disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25, as it is broken.
4 - (libev) ev_embed will now automatically follow fork.
5 - (libev) ev_once will now pass both io and timeout events to
6 the callback when both happen concurrently, instead of giving
7 one precedence.

22 - (libev) work around another bug in windows perls and

77
782.0 Sat Dec 22 17:47:03 CET 2007

83 - use a slightly different include file name strategy.
84 - get rid of (unused) libevent emulation.
