10 - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid
11 watcher (Denis Bilenko).
10 - queueing pending watchers of higher priority from a watcher now invokes 12 - queueing pending watchers of higher priority from a watcher now invokes
11 them in a timely fashion (reported by Denis Bilenko). 13 them in a timely fashion (reported by Denis Bilenko).
12 - add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for 14 - add throw() to all libev functions that cannot throw exceptions, for
13 further code size decrease when compiling for C++. 15 further code size decrease when compiling for C++.
14 - add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator, 16 - add throw () to callbacks that must not throw exceptions (allocator,
15 syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs). 17 syserr, loop acquire/release, periodic reschedule cbs).
16 - 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,
17 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
18 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).
19 - add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better 21 - add more memory fences to fix a bug reported by Jeff Davey. Better

29 the kqueue descriptor in the child. 31 the kqueue descriptor in the child.
30 - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h. 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.

34 was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case. 46 was documented already, but not implemented in the repeating case.
35 - new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS. 47 - new compiletime symbols: EV_NO_SMP and EV_NO_THREADS.
