Actually, since this hasn't been done yet - I plan to release 0.1.1
tomorrow, which would be a better candidate: it has a few new things
that I plan to use in the mongodb driver in 3.4, and also fixes a
problem on a few platform + gcc combinations. I played too many pointer
games, and on a few architectures, a certain GCC version overoptimised
it, and the result wasn't pretty.

That fixed, and the new stuff would be great to have in the internal
library.

The NEWS file in my git tree has more info about what 0.1.1 will
bring. It's API and ABI compatible with 0.1.0, and so on and so forth.

So updating to 0.1.1 would be better in the long run, as I won't have to
ask for another update once I get to publishing the interesting mongodb
stuff for 3.4 ;)
