4 - ev_unloop and ev_loop wrongly used a global variable to exit loops,
5 instead of using a per-loop variable (bug caught by accident...).
6 - the ev_set_io_collect_interval interpretation has changed.
7 - add new functionality: ev_set_userdata, ev_userdata,
8 ev_set_invoke_pending_cb, ev_set_loop_release_cb,
9 ev_invoke_pending, together with a long example about thread
10 locking.
11 - add ev_timer_remaining (as requested by Denis F. Latypoff).
12 - add ev_loop_depth.
13 - calling ev_unloop in fork/prepare watchers will no longer poll
14 for new events.
15 - Denis F. Latypoff corrected many typos in example code snippets.
16 - honor autoconf detection of EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, also double-
17 check that the syscall number is available before trying to
18 use it (reported by ry@tinyclouds).
19 - use GetSystemTimeAsFileTime instead of _timeb on windows, for
20 slightly higher accuracy.
21 - properly declare ev_loop_verify and ev_now_update even when
22 !EV_MULTIPLICITY.
23 - do not compile in any priority code when EV_MAXPRI == EV_MINPRI.
24 - support EV_MINIMAL==2 for a reduced API.
25 - actually 0-initialise struct sigaction when installing signals.
26 - add section on hibernate and stopped processes to ev_timer docs.

29 - multiple timers becoming ready within an event loop iteration
30 will be invoked in the "correct" order now.
31 - do not leave the event loop early just because we have no active
32 watchers, fixing a problem when embedding a kqueue loop
33 that has active kernel events but no registered watchers
34 (reported by blacksand blacksand).
35 - correctly zero the idx values for arrays, so destroying and
36 reinitialising the default loop actually works (patch by
37 Malek Hadj-Ali).
38 - implement ev_suspend and ev_resume.
39 - new EV_CUSTOM revents flag for use by applications.
40 - add documentation section about priorites.
41 - add a glossary to the dcoumentation.
42 - extend the ev_fork description slightly.
43 - optimize a jump out of call_pending.

46 - fix a bug in event pipe creation on win32 that would cause a
47 failed assertion on event loop creation (patch by Malek Hadj-Ali).
48 - probe for CLOCK_REALTIME support at runtime as well and fall
49 back to gettimeofday if there is an error, to support older
50 operating systems with newer header files/libraries.
51 - prefer gettimeofday over clock_gettime with USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL
52 (default most everywhere), otherwise not.

543.52 Wed Jan 7 21:43:02 CET 2009
55 - fix compilation of select backend in fd_set mode when NFDBITS is
56 missing (to get it to compile on QNX, reported by Rodrigo Campos).
57 - better select-nfds handling when select backend is in fd_set mode.
58 - diagnose fd_set overruns when select backend is in fd_set mode.
59 - due to a thinko, instead of disabling everything but
60 select on the borked OS X platform, everything but select was
61 allowed (reported by Emanuele Giaquinta).
62 - actually verify that local and remote port are matching in
63 libev's socketpair emulation, which makes denial-of-service
64 attacks harder (but not impossible - it's windows). Make sure
65 it even works under vista, which thinks that getpeer/sockname
66 should return fantasy port numbers.
67 - include "libev" in all assertion messages for potentially
68 clearer diagnostics.
69 - event_get_version (libevent compatibility) returned
70 a useless string instead of the expected version string
71 (patch by W.C.A. Wijngaards).

4 - fix a bug where an inotify watcher was added twice, causing 74 - fix a bug where an inotify watcher was added twice, causing
5 freezes on hash collisions (reported and analysed by Graham Leggett). 75 freezes on hash collisions (reported and analysed by Graham Leggett).
6 - new config symbol, EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, to make libev use 76 - new config symbol, EV_USE_CLOCK_SYSCALL, to make libev use
