 Proper exception specifications might have to be added to callbacks passed
-to libev: exceptions may be thrown only from watcher callbacks, all
-other callbacks (allocator, syserr, loop acquire/release and periodic
-reschedule callbacks) must not throw exceptions, and might need a C<throw
-()> specification. If you have code that needs to be compiled as both C
-and C++ you can use the C<EV_THROW> macro for this:
