3 - probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and fall
4 back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
5 operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
6 - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime with USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL
7 (default most everywhere), otherwise not.

10 - fix compilation of select backend in fd_set mode when NFDBITS is
11 missing (to get it to compile on QNX, reported by Rodrigo Campos).
12 - better select-nfds handling when select backend is in fd_set mode.
13 - diagnose fd_set overruns when select backend is in fd_set mode.
14 - due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
15 select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
16 allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
17 - actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
18 libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
19 attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
20 it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
21 should return fantasy port numbers.
22 - include "libev" in all assertion messages for potentially
23 clearer diagnostics.
24 - event_get_version (libevent compatibility) returned
25 a useless string instead of the expected version string
26 (patch by W.C.A. Wijngaards).

29 - fix a bug where an inotify watcher was added twice, causing
30 freezes on hash collisions (reported and analysed by Graham Leggett).
3 - new config symbol, EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, to make libev use 31 - new config symbol, EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, to make libev use
4 a direct syscall - slower, but no dependency on librt et al. 32 a direct syscall - slower, but no dependency on librt et al.
5 - assume negative return values != -1 signals success of port_getn 33 - assume negative return values != -1 signals success of port_getn

7 (no known failure reports, but it doesn't hurt). 35 (no known failure reports, but it doesn't hurt).
36 - fork detection in ev_embed now stops and restarts the watcher
37 automatically.
38 - EXPERIMENTAL: default the method to operator () in ev++.h,
39 to make it nicer to use functors (requested by Benedek László).
40 - fixed const object callbacks in ev++.h.
41 - replaced loop_ref argument of watcher.set (loop) by a direct
42 ev_loop * in ev++.h, to avoid clashes with functor patch.
43 - do not try to watch the empty string via inotify.
44 - inotify watchers could be leaked under certain circumstances.
45 - OS X 10.5 is actually even more broken than earlier versions,
46 so fall back to select on that piece of garbage.
47 - fixed some weirdness in the ev_embed documentation.

10 - ev_stat watchers will now use inotify as a mere hint on 50 - ev_stat watchers will now use inotify as a mere hint on
11 kernels <2.6.25, or if the filesystem is not in the 51 kernels <2.6.25, or if the filesystem is not in the
