10 - incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal handler
11 to SIG_DFL when a sighandler is stopped.
12 - ev_default_destroy did not properly free or zero some members,
13 potentially causing crashes and memory corruption on repated
14 ev_default_destroy/ev_default_loop calls.
15 - take advantage of signalfd on GNU/Linux systems.
16 - document that the signal mask might be in an unspecified
17 state when using libev's signal handling.
18 - take advantage of some GNU/Linux calls to set cloexec/nonblock
19 on fd creation, to avoid race conditions.

22 - ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to exit loops,
23 instead of using a per-loop variable (bug caught by accident...).
24 - the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
25 - add new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata,
26 ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb,
27 ev_invoke_pending, ev_pending_count, together with a long example
28 about thread locking.
29 - add ev_timer_remaining (as requested by Denis F. Latypoff).
30 - add ev_loop_depth.
31 - calling ev_unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
32 for new events.
33 - Denis F. Latypoff corrected many typos in example code snippets.
34 - honor autoconf detection of EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, also double-
35 check that the syscall number is available before trying to
36 use it (reported by ry@tinyclouds).
37 - use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows, for
38 slightly higher accuracy.
39 - properly declare ev_loop_verify and ev_now_update even when
40 !EV_MULTIPLICITY.
41 - do not compile in any priority code when EV_MAXPRI == EV_MINPRI.
42 - support EV_MINIMAL==2 for a reduced API.
43 - actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing signals.
44 - add section on hibernate and stopped processes to ev_timer docs.

14 - correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and 53 - correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and
15 reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by 54 reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
16 Malek Hadj-Ali). 55 Malek Hadj-Ali).
17 - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume. 56 - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume.

58 - add documentation section about priorites.
59 - add a glossary to the dcoumentation.
60 - extend the ev_fork description slightly.
61 - optimize a jump out of call_pending.
