11 - add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for
12 further code size decrease when compiling for C++.
13 - add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator,
14 syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs).
15 - fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new,
16 event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add
17 some libevent 2.x funcitonality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey).
18 - add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better
19 be overfenced than underprotected.
20 - ev_run now returns a boolean status (true meaning watchers are
21 still active).
22 - ev_once: undef EV_ERROR in ev_kqueue.c, to avoid clashing with
23 libev's EV_ERROR (reported by 191919).
24 - (ecb) add memory fence support for xlC (Darin McBride).
25 - (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-mips (Anton Kirilov).
26 - (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-alpha (Christian Weisgerber).
27 - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking
28 the kqueue descriptor in the child.
29 - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h.
