68
694.34 Sun May 1 19:18:24 CEST 2016
70 - def0.h was not properly generated during previous release, causing
71 compile errors on various platforms.
72 - major/minor were accidentally switched (reported by Alexander Lishenyuk).
73 - removed duplicate definition of MAP_HUGETLB, that was found due to
74 a bug in Perl::Tidy (testcase by alaska332@gmail.com).

100 - perl5porters broke Async::Interrupt, BDB, EV, IO::AIO, OpenCL
101 without warning by switching the meaning of USE_SOCKETS_AS_HANDLES
102 in 5.18. What's so attractive about giving a shit about backwards
103 compatibility - I will never understand.
104
1054.2 Sat Jan 25 01:13:14 CET 2014

125 - add list of linux fsid values to aio_statvfs docs.

128 as per unix spec.
129
1304.16 Tue Aug 14 05:39:03 CEST 2012
131 - aio_statvfs was wromgly marked for wd emulation, causing
132 it to malfunction for paths.

134 extents.

151 ancient systems (Paul Howarth).
152 - experimental support for IO::AIO::splice and ::tee (no aio_...).
153 - provide SEEK_HOLE and SEEK_DATA, if available.
154 - work around (again!) an immensely stupid bug in RHEL, defining
