4TODO: signal handling per loop 4 - remove dependency on sys/queue.h on freebsd (patch by Vanilla Hsu).
5TODO: NSIG etc. 5 - configure now prepends -O3, not appends it, so one can still

9 - signalfd is no longer used by default and has to be requested
10 explicitly - this means that easy to catch bugs become hard to
11 catch race conditions, but the users have spoken.
12 - point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation, and
13 that this is a race condition regardless of EV_SIGNALFD.
14 - backport inotify code to C89.
15 - inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
16 - ev_stat watchers could keep an errornous extra ref on the loop,
17 preventing exit when unregistering all watchers (testcases
18 provided by ry@tinyclouds.org).
19 - implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration
20 symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management.
21 - support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h
22 (patch by Didier Spezia).
23 - take advantage of inotify_init1, if available, to set cloexec/nonblock
24 on fd creation, to avoid races.
25 - the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows
26 (analysed by lekma).
27 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for
28 signalfd.
29 - add missing string.h include (Denis F. Latypoff).
30 - only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference,
31 so prev is (almost) always different to attr. this might
32 have caused the probems with 04_stat.t.
33 - add ev::timer->remaining () method to C++ API.

12 ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls. 40 ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
