10 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
11 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
12 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close,
13 so it doesn't get closed prematurely, leading to ugly races.

16 - fix treescan output duplication and improve output ordering.
17 also display files given on the commandline.
18 - use a different algorithm for aio_close that is faster
19 and probably has even lower chances of blocking.
20 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
21 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
22 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
23 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
24 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).

27 - added aio_sync.
28 - added aio_pathsync.
29 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.

32 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
33 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous
34 (see the manpage for details).
35 - discard callback return values as to not grow the stack endlessly
36 when poll_cb handles many requests without returning.
37 - minor code cleanups.

392.5 Thu Oct 4 14:49:08 CEST 2007
40 - replaced _fd2fh with faster xs code.
41 - aio_close will now try to do "the right thing" and thus might
42 work sensibly for the very first time.
