31.3 3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4
52.0
6 - aio functions now return control block objects that
7 can be used to cancel requests.
8 - aio requests can be cancelled.
9 - aio requests can be grouped using aio_group.
10
111.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
12 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
13
141.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
15 - codename "jost"
16 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
17 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
18 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
19
201.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
21 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
22 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
23
241.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
25 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
26 in a runtime error.
27
281.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
29 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
30 - added AnyEvent example.
31
321.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
33 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
34 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
35 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
36 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
37 wasting memory).
38
391.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
40 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
41 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
42 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
43 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
44 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).
45
461.5 Sat Aug 20 02:32:19 CEST 2005
47 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).
48 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should
49 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
50 - abort when the configure script fails.
51
521.4 Wed Aug 17 08:07:27 CEST 2005
53 - forget to recreate the pipe after forking, this could cause
54 deadlocks.

4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently 57 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them. 58 eating them.
59 - use a different fork algorithm that avoids recursive callback
60 invocations and reduces fork latency in busy processes.
61 - fix a bug where the buffer scalar in aio_read got assigned the wrong
62 length after reading.
63 - fix a bug where the child would process some outstanding requests
64 from the parent.
65 - make a copy of the callback scalar, to avoid some very uncommon
66 (but valid) usages where the callback scalar changes.
67 - the callback was never freed in aio_read/aio_write.
68 - aio_read/aio_write will now set the readonly flag on the data
69 scalar for better error reporting.

8 - verified on cygwin, linux/amd64+ia32+alpha, solaris. 72 - verified on cygwin, linux/amd64+ia32+alpha, solaris.
