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

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

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