8 10 - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid
11 watcher (Denis Bilenko).
12 - queueing pending watchers of higher priority from a watcher now invokes
13 them in a timely fashion (reported by Denis Bilenko).
14 - add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for
15 further code size decrease when compiling for C++.
16 - add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator,
17 syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs).
9 - fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new, 18 - fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new,
10 event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add 19 event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add
11 some libevent 2.x funcitonality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey). 20 some libevent 2.x functionality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey).
21 - add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better
22 be overfenced than underprotected.
12 - ev_run now returns a boolean status (true meaning watchers are 23 - ev_run now returns a boolean status (true meaning watchers are
13 still active). 24 still active).
14 - ev_once: undef EV_ERROR in ev_kqueue.c, to avoid clashing with 25 - ev_once: undef EV_ERROR in ev_kqueue.c, to avoid clashing with
15 libev's EV_ERROR (reported by 191919). 26 libev's EV_ERROR (reported by 191919).
16 - (ecb) add memory fence support for xlC (Darin McBride). 27 - (ecb) add memory fence support for xlC (Darin McBride).
17 - (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-mips (Anton Kirilov). 28 - (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-mips (Anton Kirilov).
29 - (ecb) add memory fence support for gcc-alpha (Christian Weisgerber).
18 - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking 30 - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking
19 the kqueue descriptor in the child. 31 the kqueue descriptor in the child.
32 - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h.
33 - check for io watcher loops in ev_verify, check for the most
34 common reported usage bug in ev_io_start.
35 - chose socket vs. WSASocket at compiletime using EV_USE_WSASOCKET.
36 - always use WSASend/WSARecv directly on windows, hoping that this
37 works in all cases (unlike read/write/send/recv...).
38 - try to detect signals around a fork faster (test program by
39 Denis Bilenko).
40 - work around recent glibc versions that leak memory in realloc.
41 - rename ev::embed::set to ev::embed::set_embed to avoid clashing
42 the watcher base set (loop) method.

22 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: ev_timer_again now clears the pending status, as 45 - INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: ev_timer_again now clears the pending status, as
23 was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case. 46 was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case.
24 - new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS. 47 - new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS.
