31.3 3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4
51.8
6 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
7
81.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
9 - codename "jost"
10 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
11 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
12 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
13
141.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
15 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
16 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
17
181.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
19 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
20 in a runtime error.
21
221.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
23 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
24 - added AnyEvent example.
25
261.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
27 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
28 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
29 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
30 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
31 wasting memory).
32
331.6 Tue Aug 30 17:44:44 CEST 2005
34 - added aio_readdir, aio_scandir.
35 - added aio_sendfile, including sendfile emulation when sendfile
36 isn't available. Linux, FreeBSD and HP-UX might work (sendfilev
37 support is unavailable on my solaris 8 machine, but preliminary
38 code is there. What's lacking is configury stuff and testing...).

401.5 Sat Aug 20 02:32:19 CEST 2005
41 - create the aio threads on demand only (good after forking).
42 - somebody nagged about C89 compatibility, so this release should
43 be C89 compatible, but no guarantees for future ones.
44 - abort when the configure script fails.
45
461.4 Wed Aug 17 08:07:27 CEST 2005
47 - forget to recreate the pipe after forking, this could cause
48 deadlocks.

4 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently 51 - properly propagate exceptions from callbacks, instead of silently
5 eating them. 52 eating them.
6 - forking while in an atfork handler is now supported, although 53 - use a different fork algorithm that avoids recursive callback
7 I am pretty sure some pthread implementations will barf - don't 54 invocations and reduces fork latency in busy processes.
8 fork in an AIO callback if that is a concern for you, or synchronize 55 - fix a bug where the buffer scalar in aio_read got assigned the wrong
9 for yourself by clearing the request queue first. 56 length after reading.
57 - fix a bug where the child would process some outstanding requests
58 from the parent.
59 - make a copy of the callback scalar, to avoid some very uncommon
60 (but valid) usages where the callback scalar changes.
61 - the callback was never freed in aio_read/aio_write.
62 - aio_read/aio_write will now set the readonly flag on the data
63 scalar for better error reporting.
