18 - ev.h wasn't valid C++ anymore, which tripped compilers other than
19 clang, msvc or gcc (analyzed by Raphael 'kena' Poss).
20 - when not using autoconf, tighten the check for clock_gettime and related
21 functionality.

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