51.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
6 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
7 in a runtime error.

10 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
11 - added AnyEvent example.

14 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
15 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
16 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
17 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
18 wasting memory).

201.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
21 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
22 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
23 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
24 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
25 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).

271.5 Sat Aug 20 02:32:19 CEST 2005
28 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).
29 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should
30 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
31 - abort when the configure script fails.
32
331.4 Wed Aug 17 08:07:27 CEST 2005
34 - forget to recreate the pipe after forking, this could cause
35 deadlocks.

5 eating them. 39 eating them.
40 - use a different fork algorithm that avoids recursive callback
41 invocations and reduces fork latency in busy processes.
42 - fix a bug where the buffer scalar in aio_read got assigned the wrong
43 length after reading.
44 - fix a bug where the child would process some outstanding requests
45 from the parent.
46 - make a copy of the callback scalar, to avoid some very uncommon
47 (but valid) usages where the callback scalar changes.
48 - the callback was never freed in aio_read/aio_write.
49 - aio_read/aio_write will now set the readonly flag on the data
50 scalar for better error reporting.
