3WISH? monotonic clocks times/GetTickCount for coarse corrections?

5 - further optimise away the EPOLL_CTL_ADD/MOD combo in the epoll
6 backend by assuming the kernel event mask hasn't changed if
7 ADD fails with EEXIST.
8 - use memset to initialise most arrays now and do away with the
9 init functions.
10 - expand time-out strategies into a "Be smart about timeouts" section.
11 - drop the "struct" from all ev_watcher declarations in the
12 documentation and did other clarifications (yeah, it was a mistake
13 to have a struct AND a function called ev_loop).

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

26 - embed watchers now automatically invoke ev_loop_fork on the
27 embedded loop when the parent loop forks.
28 - new function: ev_now_update (loop).
29 - verify_watcher was not marked static.
30 - improve the "associating..." manpage section.
31 - documentation tweaks here and there.

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

40 - work around yet another windows bug: FD_SET actually adds fd's
41 multiple times to the fd_*SET*, despite official MSN docs claiming
42 otherwise. Reported and well-analysed by Matt Tolton.
43 - define NFDBITS to 0 when EV_SELECT_IS_WINSOCKET to make it compile
44 (reported any analysed by Chris Hulbert).
45 - fix a bug in ev_ebadf (this function is only used to catch
46 programming errors in the libev user). reported by Matt Tolton.
47 - fix a bug in fd_intern on win32 (could lead to compile errors
48 under some circumstances, but would work correctly if it compiles).
49 reported by Matt Tolton.
50 - (try to) work around missing lstat on windows.
3 - pass in the write fd set as except fd set under windows. windows 51 - pass in the write fd set as except fd set under windows. windows
4 is so uncontrollably lame that it requires this. 52 is so uncontrollably lame that it requires this. this means that
53 switching off oobinline is not supported (but tcp/ip doesn't
54 have oob, so that would be stupid anyways.
55 - use posix module symbol to auto-detect monotonic clock presence
56 and some other default values.

7 - work around an (undocumented) bug in winsocket select: if you 59 - work around an obscure bug in winsocket select: if you
8 provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky. 60 provide only empty fd sets then select returns WSAEINVAL. how sucky.
9 - improve timer scheduling stability and reduce use of time_epsilon. 61 - improve timer scheduling stability and reduce use of time_epsilon.
10 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces 62 - use 1-based 2-heap for EV_MINIMAL, simplifies code, reduces
11 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency. 63 codesize and makes for better cache-efficiency.
12 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use 64 - use 3-based 4-heap for !EV_MINIMAL. this makes better use
