4 - fix another bug where filehandles could leak. 4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them.
6 - use a different fork algorithm that avoids recursive callback
7 invocations and reduces fork latency in busy processes.
8 - fix a bug where the buffer scalar in aio_read got assigned the wrong
9 length after reading.
10 - fix a bug where the child would process some outstanding requests
11 from the parent.
12 - make a copy of the callback scalar, to avoid some very uncommon
13 (but valid) usages where the callback scalar changes.
14 - the callback was never freed in aio_read/aio_write.
15 - aio_read/aio_write will now set the readonly flag on the data
16 scalar for better error reporting.
