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.
7 - most EV::<eventtype> constants were missing and have been
8 added :/.
9 - add EV::VERSION_MAJOR/VERSION_MINOR constants.
10 - (libev) multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop
11 iteration will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
12 - (libev) do not leave the event loop early just because we have
13 no active watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue
14 loop that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
15 (reported by blacksand blacksand).
16 - (libev) correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying
17 and reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
18 Malek Hadj-Ali).
19 - (libev) new EV::CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
20 - (libev) add documentation section about priorites.
21 - (libev) add a glossary to the dcoumentation.
22 - (libev) extend the ev_fork description slightly.
23 - (libev) optimize a jump out of call_pending.
24 - t/03_keepalive could fail when there was no actual error.

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

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

453.51 Wed Dec 24 23:01:59 CET 2008
46 - do not cache the arguments passed to callbacks if the refcount
47 indicates that the callback has stolen them.
48 - (libev) try to avoid librt on GNU/Linux.
49 - (libev) check port_getn return value dfferently, might potentially
50 avoid problems.
51 - (libev) fix a bug with stat watchers possibly causing freezes.
52 - (libev) work around OS X 10.5 breaking poll, now select is the
53 only viable choice left on that pile of garbage.
54 - play tester whore: disable some tests that typically fail only
55 on cpan tester machines.

3 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros). 58 - fix typos in manpage (Alex Efros).
4 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester 59 - increase timing even further, for the ever-overloaded cpan-tester
5 machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast 60 machines, and to the detriment of everybody else who wants a fast
6 make test. 61 make test.
7 - possible 5.6 compatibility. 62 - possible 5.6 compatibility.
63 - (libev) use inotify even on buggy kernels, but don't rely on it.
64 - (libev) use inotify only as an added hint on network filesystems.

10 - (libev) use a generation counter to detect spurious epoll events 67 - (libev) use a generation counter to detect spurious epoll events
11 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but 68 and recreate the kernel in such a case (sorry, it's slow, but
12 I didn't design epoll...). 69 I didn't design epoll...).
