9 - fix treescan output duplication and improve output ordering.
10 also display files given on the commandline.
11 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
12 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
13 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
14 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
15 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).

18 - added aio_sync.
19 - added aio_pathsync.
20 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.

222.51 Sat Oct 6 16:04:54 CEST 2007
23 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
24 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous
25 (see the manpage for details).
26 - discard callback return values as to not grow the stack endlessly
27 when poll_cb handles many requests without returning.
28 - minor code cleanups.
29
302.5 Thu Oct 4 14:49:08 CEST 2007
31 - replaced _fd2fh with faster xs code.
32 - aio_close will now try to do "the right thing" and thus might
33 work sensibly for the very first time.

352.41 Mon Sep 24 21:28:21 CEST 2007
36 - after fork, invest some work to make sure that the poll_fileno
37 stays stable (by dup2'ing the new fd over the old one), to make
38 it easier for programs/libs that don't control their forking
39 behaviour and cannot recreate their watchers.

412.4 Sun Aug 5 18:44:22 CEST 2007
42 - add aio_truncate, aio_chmod, aio_chown, aio_utime (linux
43 successfully demonstrated that you can block on futimes...).
44 - allow undef as fileoffset for aio_read/write and use read/write(2)
45 internally (useful for sockets or O_APPEND handles).
46 - allow undef for length in aio_write.
47 - negative dataoffsets work as expected now in aio_read/aio_write.
48 - use NV instead of UV for 32 bit perls and file offsets, as NVs
49 have a larger range then.
50 - shared code between BDB and IO::AIO.
51 - aio_busy was completely broken. now fixed.
52 - readahead emulation now returns something.
53 - correctly set errno to ENOSYS on unimplemented functions
54 (should never happen, though).
55 - large changes to make it partially compile and run on win32,
56 but win32 lacks too much functionality, and perl overrides way
57 too many functions with crashing versions.
