10 - added bin/treescan to the distribution.
11 - switched to using libeio.
12 - LOTS OF INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
13 - remove signal functionality, it is not worth the effort.
14 - max_outstanding no longer returns the previous number of requests.
15 - poll_cb no longer returns number of requests.

172.62 Sat Apr 26 13:59:33 CEST 2008
18 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
19 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
20 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close,
21 so it doesn't get closed prematurely, leading to ugly races.
22
232.61 Wed Apr 16 18:45:02 CEST 2008
24 - fix treescan output duplication and improve output ordering.
25 also display files given on the commandline.
26 - use a different algorithm for aio_close that is faster
27 and probably has even lower chances of blocking.
28 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
29 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
30 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
31 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
32 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).

14 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably. 40 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
