64.03 8TODO: ev_sleep suffers from different backend_fudge...
9 - correct backend_fudge for most backends, and implement a windows
10 specific workaround to avoid looping because we call both
11 select and Sleep, both with different time resolutions.
12 - document range and guarantees of ev_sleep.
13 - change the default periodic reschedule function to hopefully be more
14 exact and correct even in corner cases or in the far future.
15 - document reasonable ranges for periodics interval and offset.
16 - do not rely on -lm anymore: use it when available but use our
17 own floor () if it is missing. This should make it easier to embed,
18 as no external libraries are required.

21 - fix two problems in the native win32 backend, where reuse of fd's
22 with different underlying handles caused handles not to be removed
23 or added to the select set (analyzed and tested by Bert Belder).
24 - do no rely on ceil() in ev_e?poll.c.
25 - backport libev to HP-UX versions before 11 v3.
26 - configure did not detect nanosleep and clock_gettime properly when
27 they are available in the libc (as opposed to -lrt).

30 - officially support polling files with all backends.
31 - support files, /dev/zero etc. the same way as select in the epoll
32 backend, by generating events on our own.
33 - ports backend: work around solaris bug 6874410 and many related ones
34 (EINTR, maybe more), with no performance loss (note that the solaris
35 bug report is actually wrong, reality is far more bizarre and broken
36 than that).
7 - define EV_READ/EV_WRITE as macros in event.h, as some programs use 37 - define EV_READ/EV_WRITE as macros in event.h, as some programs use
8 #ifdef to test for them. 38 #ifdef to test for them.
39 - new (experimental) function: ev_feed_signal.
40 - new (to become default) EVFLAG_NOSIGMASK flag.
41 - new EVBACKEND_MASK symbol.
42 - updated COMMON IDIOMS SECTION.

12 to make it update its files, so 4.00 didn't install ev++.h and 46 to make it update its files, so 4.00 didn't install ev++.h and
13 event.h on make install. grrr. 47 event.h on make install. grrr.
