19 - ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than
20 clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss). Unfortunately,
21 C++ doesn't support typedefs for function pointers fully, so the affected
22 declarations have to spell out the types each time.
23 - when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related
24 functionality.

27 - events on files were not always generated properly with the
28 epoll backend (testcase by Assaf Inbal).
29 - mark event pipe fd as cloexec after a fork (analyzed by Sami Farin).
30 - (ecb) support m68k, m88k and sh (patch by Miod Vallat).
31 - use a reasonable fallback for EV_NSIG instead of erroring out
32 when we can't detect the signal set size.
33 - in the absence of autoconf, do not use the clock syscall
34 on glibc >= 2.17 (avoids the syscall AND -lrt on systems
35 doing clock_gettime in userspace).
36 - ensure extern "C" function pointers are used for externally-visible
37 loop callbacks (not watcher callbacks yet).
38 - (ecb) work around memory barriers and volatile apparently both being
39 broken in visual studio 2008 and later (analysed and patch by Nicolas Noble).
