 Revision history for libev, a high-performance and full-featured event loop.

 	- backport inotify code to C89.
+        - inotify file descriptors were not properly recreated after a fork,
+          and could leak into child processes.
        - implement EV_WIN32_HANDLE_TO_FD and EV_WIN32_CLOSE_FD configuration
          symbols to make it easier for apps to do their own fd management.
        - support EV_IDLE_ENABLE being disabled in ev++.h
          (patch by Didier Spezia).
        - point out the unspecified signal mask in the documentation.
+        - take advantage of inotify_init1, if available, to set cloexec/nonblock
+          on fd creation, to avoid races.
        - changed minimum glibc requirement from glibc 2.9 to 2.7, for
          signalfd.
