10 - lots of incompatible changes:
11 - remove signal functionality, it is not worth the effort.
12 - max_outstanding no longer returns the previous number of requests.
13 - poll_cb no longer returns number of requests.

16 - port to solaris perls configured for old posix
17 (analysed by Jost Krieger).
18 - keep a reference to the perl filehandle object in aio_close,
19 so it doesn't get closed prematurely, leading to ugly races.
20
212.61 Wed Apr 16 18:45:02 CEST 2008
22 - fix treescan output duplication and improve output ordering.
23 also display files given on the commandline.
24 - use a different algorithm for aio_close that is faster
25 and probably has even lower chances of blocking.
26 - do our own stack memory management for threads - linux
27 allocates outrageous amounts of VM (not so bad unless you
28 use mlockall...), which severely limits the number of threads
29 on 32-bit arches: stack size is the larger of PTHREAD_STACK_MIN
30 and 4096 * sizeof (long) (usually this is 16..64k).
31
322.6 Sun Mar 30 08:28:11 CEST 2008
33 - added aio_sync.
34 - added aio_pathsync.
35 - fix prototypes of (void) functions.

372.51 Sat Oct 6 16:04:54 CEST 2007
38 - perlio isn't generally threadsafe, so aio_close could not work reliably.
39 aio_close now tries a safe hack that might not be that asynchronous
40 (see the manpage for details).
41 - discard callback return values as to not grow the stack endlessly
42 when poll_cb handles many requests without returning.
43 - minor code cleanups.

10 - replaced _fd2fh with faster xs code. 46 - replaced _fd2fh with faster xs code.

12 work sensibly for the very first time. 48 work sensibly for the very first time.
