4 - further optimise away the EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
5 backend by assuming the kernel event mask hasn't changed if
6 ADD fails with EEXIST.
7 - work around spurious event notification bugs in epoll by using
8 a 32-bit generation counter. recreate kernel state if we receive
9 spurious notifications or unwanted events. this is very costly,
10 but I didn't come up with this horrible design.
11 - use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away with the
12 init functions.
13 - expand time-out strategies into a "Be smart about timeouts" section.
14 - drop the "struct" from all ev_watcher declarations in the
15 documentation and did other clarifications (yeah, it was a mistake
16 to have a struct AND a function called ev_loop).
17 - fix a bug where ev_default would not initialise the default
18 loop again after it was destroyed with ev_default_destroy.
19 - rename syserr to ev_syserr to avoid name clashes when embedding,
20 do similar changes for event.c.

23 - disable inotify usage on linux <2.6.25, as it is broken
24 (reported by Yoann Vandoorselaere).
25 - ev_stat errornously would try to add inotify watchers
26 even when inotify wasn't available (this should only
27 have a performance impact).
28 - ev_once now passes both timeout and io to the callback if both
29 occur concurrently, instead of giving timeouts precedence.
30 - disable EV_USE_INOTIFY when sys/inotify.h is too old.

33 - embed watchers now automatically invoke ev_loop_fork on the
34 embedded loop when the parent loop forks.
35 - new function: ev_now_update (loop).
36 - verify_watcher was not marked static.
37 - improve the "associating..." manpage section.
38 - documentation tweaks here and there.

41 - include more include files on windows to get struct _stati64
42 (reported by Chris Hulbert, but doesn't quite fix his issue).
43 - add missing #include <io.h> in ev.c on windows (reported by
44 Matt Tolton).
