17 - destroying a non-default loop would stop the global waitpid
18 watcher (Denis Bilenko).

14 - fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new, 25 - fix event_base_loop return code, add event_get_callback, event_base_new,
15 event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add 26 event_base_get_method calls to improve libevent 1.x emulation and add
16 some libevent 2.x funcitonality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey). 27 some libevent 2.x functionality (based on a patch by Jeff Davey).

26 - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking 37 - work around some kernels losing file descriptors by leaking
27 the kqueue descriptor in the child. 38 the kqueue descriptor in the child.
39 - work around linux inotify not reporting IN_ATTRIB changes for directories
40 in many cases.
28 - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h. 41 - include sys/syscall.h instead of plain syscall.h.

30 common reported usage bug in ev_io_start. 43 common reported usage bug in ev_io_start.
31 - chose socket vs. WSASocket at compiletime using EV_USE_WSASOCKET. 44 - choose socket vs. WSASocket at compiletime using EV_USE_WSASOCKET.
32 - always use WSASend/WSARecv directly on windows, hoping that this 45 - always use WSASend/WSARecv directly on windows, hoping that this
33 works in all cases (unlike read/write/send/recv...). 46 works in all cases (unlike read/write/send/recv...).
47 - try to detect signals around a fork faster (test program by
48 Denis Bilenko).
49 - work around recent glibc versions that leak memory in realloc.
50 - rename ev::embed::set to ev::embed::set_embed to avoid clashing
51 the watcher base set (loop) method.
52 - rewrite the async/signal pipe logic to always keep a valid fd, which
53 simplifies (and hopefully correctifies :) the race checking
54 on fork, at the cost of one extra fd.
55 - add fat, msdos, jffs2, ramfs, ntfs and btrfs to the list of
56 inotify-supporting filesystems.
57 - move orig_CFLAGS assignment to after AC_INIT, as newer autoconf
58 versions ignore it before
59 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=908096).
60 - add some untested android support.
61 - enum expressions must be of type int (reported by Juan Pablo L).
