3TODO: better autoconf.pm that can return LIBS etc.
4TODO: maxidle? exit after idle time?

6 - start threads only on (very low) demand.
7 - some tuning applied to random places.

92.0 Thu Oct 26 18:27:58 CEST 2006
10 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
11 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
12 - aio requests can be cancelled.
13 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
14 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
15 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
16 into composite requests.
17 - generator interface for groups.
18 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
19 - major documentation improvements.
20 - very minor bugfixes.
21 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
22 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
23 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
24 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
25 putting them onto the stack.
26 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
27 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
28 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
29 - warn about broken perl malloc.
30 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
31 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
32 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
33
341.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
35 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.
36
371.73 Wed Mar 1 22:49:32 CET 2006
38 - codename "jost"
39 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
40 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
41 wcooley@nakedape.cc).
42
431.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
44 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
45 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
46
471.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
48 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting
49 in a runtime error.
50
511.7 Mon Dec 26 19:29:48 CET 2005
52 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.
53 - added AnyEvent example.
54
551.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
56 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
57 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
58 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
59 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
60 wasting memory).
