Changes for version 4.03 - 2011-01-11

  • do not avoid the clock_gettime call on GNU/Linux anymore, as EV links against -lpthread anyways - as a result, EV might now take advantage of fast userspace clock_gettime implementations, but also links against -lrt.
  • (libev) lots of event port bug workarounds.
  • (libev) officially support files in I/O watchers.
  • (libev) new function ev_feed_signal.
  • fix documentation parts still refering to the 3.x API.
