17 - minor incompatibility: max_outstanding semantics have changed.
18 - major rewrite, consider all functionality EXPERIMENTAL.
19 - aio requests can be cancelled.
20 - callbacks can be (re-)set later.
21 - aio requests can choose between 9 priorities.
22 - add aio_group: aio requests can be grouped
23 into composite requests.
24 - generator interface for groups.
25 - add IO::AIO::poll_some.
26 - major documentation improvements.
27 - very minor bugfixes.
28 - add aio_nop for dummy requests.
29 - add aio_busy mainly for benchmarking and debugging.
30 - use "fast" mutexes on linux.
31 - use dynamic (and larger) buffers instead of
32 putting them onto the stack.
33 - optimise x86 and amd64 a bit.
34 - better error checking when ENOMEM.
35 - hopefully fix mem and dirp leaks on fork.
36 - warn about broken perl malloc.
37 - compiles on cygwin (but pread is broken on cygwin
38 which is not detected by autoconf, so you have to
39 edit autoconf/config.h yourself to enable emulation).
40
411.8 Sat Jun 24 22:20:44 CEST 2006
42 - add and/or document aio_rename, aio_link, aio_symlink and aio_move.

45 - codename "jost"
46 - AIX/Solaris(?) aren't being helpful again, hardcode a value
47 for NAME_MAX and drive with your eyes closed (reported by
48 wcooley@nakedape.cc).

501.72 Thu Feb 2 00:40:44 CET 2006
51 - another minor bug in aio_scandir, again, the callback was called
52 twice when the directory can't be stat'ed.
53
541.71 Mon Dec 26 20:20:03 CET 2005
55 - grr, another minor bug in aio_scandir, this time resulting

57

59 - aio_scandir errornously called callback twice in some cases.

621.61 Wed Sep 7 19:40:42 CEST 2005
63 - no longer include $Config{libs}, as distros include too much
64 garbage in there that is not installed on typical systems
65 (for example, debian links perl against -lgdbm and many more
66 libraries despite perl not needing it, slowing down startup and
67 wasting memory).
