14TODO: remove fork support, eio_init can be called multiple times maybe 13 - make fh argument of IO::AIO::mmap optional, also add mmap/munmap
15TODO: "this might change" 14 to quick overview.
15 - splice can corrupt data.
16 - (libeio) remove pread/pwrite emulation.
17 - do not grow mmaped scalars in aio_read.
18 - add FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE and document fallocate.

204.15 Tue Apr 10 06:59:00 CEST 2012
21 - always include linux/types.h for fiemap, for compatibility to
22 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
23 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
24 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
25 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
26 autoconf macros in linux system headers (analysed by Paul Howarth).
27
284.14 Sat Apr 7 02:45:18 CEST 2012
29 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
30 - (libeio) make readahead emulation behave more like actual readahead by never failing.
31 - new request aio_seek.
32 - new request aio_fiemap.
33 - autogenerate the #ifdef/#define 0 blocks for symbols we export.
34
354.12 Fri Dec 30 08:51:25 CET 2011
36 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
37 instead of -1.
38 - port to c89.

404.11 Mon Oct 10 00:24:11 CEST 2011
41 - libeio didn't compile on !linux (Paul Howarth).

434.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
44 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
45 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
46 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
47 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
48 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
49 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
50 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
51 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
52 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
53 in aio_scandir and treescan.
54 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
55 - added --progress switch to treescan.
56
574.0 Mon Jul 18 05:01:10 CEST 2011
58 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
59 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
60 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
61 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
62 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
63 a timeout occured at the same time.
16 - (libeio) added realpath. 64 - (libeio) added realpath.
65 - (libeio) added fallocate.
17 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke it. 66 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
67 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
68 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
