Nick Mathewson 7289d7f800 Fix a potentially very annoying evdns bug that we found in Tor.
Generally speaking, it way better to event_assign() an event when you
allocate it than to assign it before every time you event_add it: if
it is already event_add()ed, the assign will mess it up so that it
doesn't _look_ added, and event_add() will insert a second copy.
Later, event_del() will only delete the second copy.  Eventually, the
event_base will have a dangling pointer to freed memory.  Ouch!

To build libevent, type

$ ./configure && make

     (If you got libevent from the subversion repository, you will
      first need to run the included "autogen.sh" script in order to
      generate the configure script.)

Install as root via

# make install

You can run the regression tests by

$ make verify

Before, reporting any problems, please run the regression tests.

To enable the low-level tracing build the library as:

CFLAGS=-DUSE_DEBUG ./configure [...]
