Changes for version 1.85 - 2007-12-14

  • further optimise epoll backend by adding a heuristic that avoids EPOLL_CTL_DEL calls if possible.
  • EV::signal->start was not async-signal safe.
  • fix some aliasing issues w.r.t. timers and periodics (not relevant for perl).
  • optimise start/stop when the fd hasn't changed.
