Changes for version 4.21 - 2008-07-17

  • INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE: AnyEvent::Util::fork_call now has a prototype which is incompatible to previous invocation syntax.
  • work around more windows perl bugs in fork_call. I cannot imagine why anybody would bother implementing fork in such an obviously unusable way.
  • avoid calling $do_retry if the request has already finished in AnyEvent::DNS, thus avoiding an exception (reported by Anatoly K. Sharifulin).
