4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them.
6 - be more careful during fork and allow recursive forks from within
7 atfork handlers *iff* the pthreads library in use allows it.
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.

17 - verified on cygwin, linux/amd64+ia32+alpha, solaris.
18 - use SvPVbyte for filenames now. You *need* to encode your strings to
19 the external filename encoding first.
20 - fix the bug where filehandles could leak (again).
21 - clarify freebsd situation: make it work and tell me how, or go away
22 with your underdocumented, broken and outdated OS.
23 - fork'ing should now be officially supported (where linux and
24 posix contradict each other, I followed posix).
25 - only call read() once per poll, not twice (speedup).
26 - new functions: aio_rmdir, aio_symlink.
27 - force callback arguments to be undef or a reference, for better
28 error catching.

31 - added configure script to detect availability of some calls.
32 (imperfect, as we cannot detect things like -lrt due to missing
33 feedback yet).
34 - emulate fdatasync via fsync, pread/pwrite via unsafe read/write
35 and readahead via manual reading on platforms lacking those.
36 - ported t/03_errors.t+framework by Brad Fitzpatrick
37 from Linux::AIO.
38 - removed XOPEN_SOURCE because stupid solaris 9 doesn't
39 compile with it enabled. Probably breaks others. Oh well.
40 - try to be more careful with errno on non-threaded perls.
41 - cygwins perl insisted on a matching open mode when morphing
42 the fd to an fh.
43 - convert sv's to "byte" encoding in aio_read/aio_write. Might
44 do that for pathnames, too, in the future, so make sure you
45 properly encode your pathnames.

4 - aio_open did not reliably deliver (open) filehandles. 48 - aio_open did not reliably deliver (open) filehandles.
5 - all aio_*-functions keep a reference to the filehandle so 49 - all aio_*-functions keep a reference to the filehandle so
6 it doesn't go away while the aio requests is working on it. 50 it doesn't go away while the aio requests is working on it.
