3 - keepalive(0) could decrease the refcount of the loop
4 permanently.
5 - add ev_suspend/ev_resume, also make ev_now_update
6 accessible via the XS API.

9 - (libev) on win32, the event loop creation could randomly fail
10 due to an initialised variable having the wrong value.
11 - (libev) probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and
12 fall back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
13 operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
14 - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime by default.

17 - (libev) fix some issues in the select backend when in fd_set mode.
18 - (libev) due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
19 select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
20 allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
21 - (libev) actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
22 libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
23 attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
24 it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
25 should return fantasy port numbers.

28 - do not cache the arguments passed to callbacks if the refcount
29 indicates that the callback has stolen them.
30 - (libev) try to avoid librt on GNU/Linux.
31 - (libev) check port_getn return value dfferently, might potentially
32 avoid problems.
33 - (libev) fix a bug with stat watchers possibly causing freezes.
34 - (libev) work around OS X 10.5 breaking poll, now select is the
35 only viable choice left on that pile of garbage.
36 - play tester whore: disable some tests that typically fail only
37 on cpan tester machines.

3 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros). 40 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
4 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester 41 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester
5 machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast 42 machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast
6 make test. 43 make test.
7 - possible 5.6 compatibility. 44 - possible 5.6 compatibility.
45 - (libev) use inotify even on buggy kernels, but don't rely on it.
46 - (libev) use inotify only as an added hint on network filesystems.

11 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but 50 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but
12 I didn't design epoll...). 51 I didn't design epoll...).
