Changes for version 4.02 - 2007-10-06

  • fix a very minor per-coroutine memleak (a single codereference).
  • fixed a bug where the currently in-use c context would be freed prematurely (can happen only when programs change the stacksize or use tracing).
  • tracing can no longer keep a coro alive after it terminated.
  • do static branch prediction in the common path for gcc. gives about 2-5% speed improvement here.
