 Log Message:
 Update to 2.3.2, by Jaap Boender in PR 44991.
 
 ===== 2.3.2 (2011-11-04) =====
 
   * Add location informations in logs:
     ** allow loggers to get the current location through local storage
     ** pass current location to logging functions
     ** pass the current location with the syntax extension
   * Add Lwt.on_termination
   * Add Lwt_unix.reinstall_signal_handler
   * Add Lwt_io.flush_all
   * Add assert_lwt keyword to the syntax extension
   * Add Lwt.wrap
   * Add Lwt_glib.iter and Lwt_glib.wakeup
   * ocaml 3.13 ready
   * Allow to compile without libev support
   * Fix bugs in Lwt_io
   * Better handling of forks
   * Fix many problems on Windows
 
 ===== 2.3.1 (2011-07-13) =====
 
   * Fix building of documentation when using the tarball
   * Add Lwt_unix.fsync and Lwt_unix.fdatasync
   * Fix the stubs for Lwt_unix.send_msg when fd-passing is not
     available
   * Add -lwt-sequence-strict option to the syntax extension
   * Use a custom PRNG state for Lwt.choose and Lwt.pick
   * Fix a display glitch when starting the toplevel
   * Add Lwt_unix.fork which should now be used when one want to use
     Lwt in the child process
   * Better implementation of Lwt_unix.readlink and
     Lwt_unix.gethostbyname, which fixes compilation on Hurd
   * Add Lwt.wakeup_later and Lwt.wakeup_later_exn to be used when one
     need to do lot of nested wakeup, which fixes a buffer overflow in
     Lwt_mutex
   * Fix Lwt_unix.abort and Lwt_unix.close (threads was never wakeup)
   * Fix Lwt_throttle for correct timings
   * Fix subtle use of cancel
 
 ===== 2.3.0 (2011-04-12) =====
 
   * Add an extensible system of engines to:
     ** allow the user to replace libev by another event system, such
        as select
     ** allow easier integration of external libraries supporting
        asynchronous operations
   * Lots of improvements for windows:
     ** use the ocaml select instead of libev by default on windows
     ** make asynchronous operations on non-socket file descriptors
        such as pipes to work
     ** make glib integration to work
   * Better use of engines in Lwt_unix: now events are cached to minimize
     the amount of calls to epoll_ctl
   * Use an eventfd when possible for notifications for faster delivery
   * Add modules:
     ** Lwt_sys: allow to test availability of extra features
     ** Lwt_react: replace Lwt_event and Lwt_signal
   * Allow to configure logging rules at runtime in Lwt_log
   * Add match_lwt and while_lwt to the syntax extension
   * Fixes:
     ** syntax extension: handle "lwt ... = ... in ..." at toplevel
     ** make the notification system fork-proof
     ** fix an issue with stubs not raising correctly exceptions
 
 ===== 2.2.1 (2011-01-26) =====
 
   * Better interaction with Js_of_ocaml.
   * Add functions {{{Lwt.register_pause_notifier}}} and {{{Lwt.paused_count}}}.
 
 ===== 2.2.0 (2010-12-13) =====
 
   * Bugfixes:
     ** Fix a bug with cancellable threads causing {{{Canceled}}}
        exceptions to be raised randomly
     ** Fix a fd-leak in Lwt_io.open_connection
   * {{{Lwt_unix}}} now use libev instead of select
   * Add thread local storage support to {{{Lwt}}}
   * Add backtrace support to {{{Lwt}}}. Now {{{Lwt}}} exceptions can
     be recored by using the syntax extension with the {{{-lwt-debug}}}
     command line switch.
   * Allow blocking system calls to be executed in parallels
   * Change the type of many functions of {{{Lwt_unix}}}, which now
     return a {{{Lwt}}} thread
   * Add functions {{{Lwt_unix.readable}}} and {{{Lwt_unix.writable}}}
   * Add function {{{Lwt_io.is_busy}}}
   * Add functions {{{Lwt_event.delay}}} and {{{Lwt_signal.delay}}}
   * Add function {{{Lwt_term.render_update}}}
   * Add function {{{Lwt_ssl.embed_socket}}}
   * Add module {{{Lwt_bytes}}} defining operations on bigarrays
     instead of strings
   * Use bigarrays in Lwt_io instead of strings for the internal buffer.
     Lwt_io.make now takes a function that uses a bigarray.
   * Add module {{{Lwt_switch}}}
 
 ===== 2.1.1 (2010-06-13) =====
 
   * Many bugfixes, including:
     ** buggy behaviour of cancellable threads
     ** file descriptor leakage in {{{Lwt_unix.accept_n}}}
   * Add {{{Lwt.nchoose}}} and {{{Lwt.npick}}}
   * Use {{{set_close_on_exec}}} for fds created by {{{Lwt_log}}}
   * Better implementation of lwtized react functions
 
 ===== 2.1.0 (2010-04-19) =====
 
   * Rename {{{Lwt.select}}} to {{{Lwt.pick}}}
   * Removing module {{{Lwt_monitor}}} in favour of {{{Lwt_mutex}}} and
     new module {{{Lwt_condition}}}
   * More react helpers:
     ** {{{Lwt_event.next}}}
     ** {{{Lwt_event.limit}}} and {{{Lwt_signal.limit}}}
     ** {{{Lwt_event.from}}}
   * Adding function {{{Lwt_main.fast_yield}}}

     put the terminal into drawing mode
   * Optimisation of {{{Lwt_stream}}}
   * Optimisation of {{{Lwt_io.write_char}}} and {{{Lwt_io.read_char}}}
   * Bugfix of {{{Lwt_stream}}}: two parallel {{{Lwt_stream.get}}}
     returned the same value
   * Bugfix in {{{Lwt_unix.connect}}}: it returned immediatly on EINPROGRESS

   * Adding modules:
     ** {{{Lwt_stream}}}: lwt-aware version of the {{{Stream}}} module

        replacement by a custom main loop

     ** {{{Lwt_term}}} for interaction with the terminal
     ** {{{Lwt_read_line}}} for interactive user input
     ** {{{Lwt_monitor}}}, {{{Lwt_mvar}}}: combined locks for
        synchronization with conditional variables for notification

     ** {{{Lwt_event}}}, {{{Lwt_signal}}}: helpers for reactive
        programming with lwt
   * Adding a syntax extension {{{pa_lwt}}}:
     ** handles anonymous bind {{{a >> b}}}
     ** adds syntactic sugar for catching errors (ticket #6)
     ** adds syntactic sugar for parallel let-binding construction
     ** adds syntactic sugar for for-like loops
