Hi all,
I've noticed that 1.8 support is actually broken in corner cases if
blocking file descriptors are exposed to this library.
Since it's time consuming to maintain 100% proper 1.8 compatibility with
the green threading implementation, I'm strongly considering just
dropping it.
Actually, is anybody using this at all besides me? :)

Nevermind, I think I've worked around/fixed the problems under 1.8. Of
course 1.8 still sucks if you're multithreaded and blocked on disk I/O
