17 - move some declarations at the beginning to help certain retarded
18 microsoft compilers, even though their documentation claims
19 otherwise (reported by Ruslan Osmanov).

22 - when epoll detects unremovable fds in the fd set, rebuild
23 only the epoll descriptor, not the signal pipe, to avoid
24 SIGPIPE in ev_async_send. This doesn't solve it on fork,
25 so document what needs to be done in ev_loop_fork
26 (analyzed by Benjamin Mahler).
27 - remove superfluous sys/timeb.h include on win32
28 (analyzed by Jason Madden).
29 - updated libecb.

32 - prefer noexcept over throw () with C++ 11.
33 - update ecb.h due to incompatibilities with c11.
34 - fix a potential aliasing issue when reading and writing
35 watcher callbacks.

38 - ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than
39 clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss). Unfortunately,
40 C++ doesn't support typedefs for function pointers fully, so the affected
41 declarations have to spell out the types each time.
42 - when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related
43 functionality.
44
454.18 Fri Sep 5 17:55:26 CEST 2014
46 - events on files were not always generated properly with the
47 epoll backend (testcase by Assaf Inbal).
48 - mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
49 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
50 - use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out
51 when we can't detect the signal set size.
52 - in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
53 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
54 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
55 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
56 loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet).
57 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
58 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
