7 - new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata, 53.8 Sun Aug 9 14:30:45 CEST 2009
8 ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb, 6 - incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal handler
9 ev_invoke_pending, together with a long example about thread 7 to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
10 locking. 8 - ev_default_destroy did not properly free or zero some members,
9 potentially causing crashes and memory corruption on repated
10 ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
11 - take advantage of signalfd on GNU/Linux systems.
12 - document that the signal mask might be in an unspecified
13 state when using libev's signal handling.
14 - take advantage of some GNU/Linux calls to set cloexec/nonblock
15 on fd creation, to avoid race conditions.

24 about thread locking.
