    - Removed is_closing()
    - Removed is_active()
    - Removed loop_configure()
    - Removed loop_alive()
    - Removed reference to UV::Poll->new_socket() as that's all done in the
      standard ->new() constructor now.
    - Updated documentation for the Handle classes to better indicate their
      use.
    - Removed extra library detection for windows as this is now done in
      Alien::libuv

    - Remove lib/p5uv_handles.h (no longer needed)
    - Remove lib/p5uv_loops.h (no longer needed)
    - Ensure all Handle objects call ->_destruct() on destruction rather than
      just calling close.
    - Provide the current "closed" state of the handle to its destructor to
      assist with knowing when to free safely.
    - Rename Loop->_destroy() to Loop->_destruct() to be consistent
    - Make Loop->_destroy() use p5uv_destroy_loop() to free properly
    - A few changes at the suggestion of Devel::PPPort
    - Added a few more tests to ensure we can export things correctly
    - Added a UV::check() function. A convenience wrapper to UV::Check->new
    - Added a UV::idle() function. A convenience wrapper to UV::Idle->new

    - Update some prereqs
    - Remove use of SO_REUSEPORT in the tests. We store the port already.
