Most of all, I want to get rid of the Trio dependency. I'm aware that this 
change could break some ancient platforms but I'm willing to help with fixes 
in a timely manner.

If you think the change is too dangerous then I can revert it. But at one 
point, we should discuss how to handle compatibility with 20+ year old platforms.

That said, Trio still seems to be supported. The latest release is 1.16 from 2014:

    https://sourceforge.net/projects/ctrio/files/trio/

Upgrading our copy of the Trio code should fix some compiler warnings, but 
personally I'd prefer not having to deal with third party code at all.
