12TODO: MS_xxx, posix_fadvise, posix_madvise 12 - fix stat structure usage on windows, which caused bogus stat results.
13TODO: realpath 13

15 - realpath would return a random value if the name was too long,
16 instead of -1.

224.1 Sun Oct 9 10:24:11 CEST 2011
23 - IO::AIO did access uninitialised memory on unsuccessful stats.
24 - (libeio) added syncfs syscall wrapper.
25 - (libeio) set thread name on linux (ps -L/Hcx, top, gdb).
26 - (libeio) support multiple indepenent working directories.
27 - applied speling corrections by Nicholas Bamber.
28 - tune treescan #threads and #outstanding requests a bit.
29 - reduce the number of file descriptors in use at any one time
30 in treescan, to avoid running out of them (and using too much ram).
31 - take advantage of working directoriy abstractions
32 in aio_scandir and treescan.
33 - reduce compiled size by ~10% by not inlining some key functionality.
34 - added --progress switch to treescan.

37 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: fork is no longer supported (indeed, it never was),
38 see FORK BEHAVIOUR in manpage for details.
39 - passes testsuite on win32 now and may actually work
40 (activestate 5.10.1 / MSVC6, YMMV).
41 - (libeio) fix a deadlock where a wakeup signal could be missed when
42 a timeout occured at the same time.
43 - (libeio) added realpath.
44 - (libeio) added fallocate.
45 - (libeio) disabling sendfile on darwin unfortunately broke the emulation.
46 - (libeio) do not acquire any locks when forking.
47 - (libeio) use fewer time() syscalls when waiting for new requests.
