3 - signalfd is no longer used by default and has to be requested
4 explicitly - this means that easy to catch bugs become hard to
5 catch race conditions, but the users have spoken.
6 - point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation, and
7 that this is a race condition regardless of EV_SIGNALFD.
3 - backport inotify code to C89. 8 - backport inotify code to C89.
9 - inotify file descriptors could leak into child processes.
10 - ev_stat watchers could keep an errornous extra ref on the loop,
11 preventing exit when unregistering all watchers (testcases
12 provided by ry@tinyclouds.org).
4 - implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration 13 - implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration
5 symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management. 14 symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management.
6 - support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h 15 - support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h
7 (patch by Didier Spezia). 16 (patch by Didier Spezia).
8 - point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation. 17 - take advantage of inotify_init1, if available, to set cloexec/nonblock
18 on fd creation, to avoid races.
19 - the signal handling pipe wasn't always initialised under windows
20 (analysed by lekma).
9 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for 21 - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for
10 signalfd. 22 signalfd.
23 - add missing string.h include (Denis F. Latypoff).
24 - only replace ev_stat.prev when we detect an actual difference,
25 so prev is (almost) always different to attr. this might
26 have caused the probems with 04_stat.t.
27 - add ev::timer->remaining () method to C++ API.

13 - incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal handler 30 - incompatible change: do not necessarily reset signal handler
