breaks on 10.0.0-alpha.*

This is due to how render doesn't append new dom anymore if it's being rendered already, also this.props.children is not always an array. I had a go at fixing it by doing some workaround like:

this.remote = this.props.into.appendChild(document.createElement('div'));

But then I don't know Preact well enough to render directly into that remote, render will render inside the div only. Not the current behaviour.

Hey @developit
Any pointers that you can give so that we can make this work on our side with Preact X?

For now, this is my working hack:

• In my preact-portal fork, before accessing children[0] I convert it to an array like so:

const arr = toChildArray(children); 
return (arr && arr[0]) || null;

• In my components that use Portal (modals), I append a new container for each instance which I provide to the Portal too. And remove that container on unmount.

Seems like this project is no longer maintained? In PreactX we can now use createPortal from preact/compat.
