7 - new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata,
8 ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb,
9 ev_invoke_pending, together with a long example about thread
10 locking.
11 - ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to exit loops,
12 instead of using a per-loop variable (bug caught by accident...).
13 - calling ev_unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
14 for new events.
15 - Denis F. Latypoff corrected many typos in example code snippets.
16 - the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
17 - honor autoconf detection of EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, also double-
18 check that the syscall number is available before trying to
19 use it (reported by ry@tinyclouds).
20 - use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows, for
21 slightly higher accuracy.
22 - properly declare ev_loop_verify and ev_now_update even when
23 !EV_MULTIPLICITY.
24 - implement ev_loop_depth.
25 - do not compile in any priority code when EV_MAXPRI == EV_MINPRI.
26 - support EV_MINIMAL==2 for a reduced API.
27 - actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing signals.
28 - add section on hibernate and stopped processes to ev_timer docs.

31 - multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop iteration
32 will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
33 - do not leave the event loop early just because we have no active
34 watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue loop
35 that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
36 (reported by blacksand blacksand).
37 - correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and
38 reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
39 Malek Hadj-Ali).
40 - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume.
41 - new EV_CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
42 - add documentation section about priorites.
43 - add a glossary to the dcoumentation.
44 - extend the ev_fork description slightly.
45 - optimize a jump out of call_pending.

48 - fix a bug in event pipe creation on win32 that would cause a
49 failed assertion on event loop creation (patch by Malek Hadj-Ali).
50 - probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and fall
51 back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
52 operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
53 - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime with USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL
54 (default most everywhere), otherwise not.

57 - fix compilation of select backend in fd_set mode when NFDBITS is
58 missing (to get it to compile on QNX, reported by Rodrigo Campos).
59 - better select-nfds handling when select backend is in fd_set mode.
60 - diagnose fd_set overruns when select backend is in fd_set mode.
61 - due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
62 select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
63 allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).

69 - include "libev" in all assertion messages for potentially
70 clearer diagnostics.
71 - event_get_version (libevent compatibility) returned
72 a useless string instead of the expected version string
73 (patch by W.C.A. Wijngaards).
