[Libevent-users] Windows 64-bit limit on connections for memcached solved

[Patrick Galbraith <patg@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I promised to write the list to let everyone know that with the help of 
Nick, Trond and some tinkering by myself, we have figured out the issue 
with memcached, particularly on Windows 64-bit. The commit messages 
explain the fixes. In particular:

commit e1e703d2f5d35118e80be6a0e780682284ce8bc3

   Make evutil_signal_active() match declaration.

commit 3eb044d0a9cdaa9bc6a8fc202f1725bd7eda5e0b

   Never test for select() on windows
  
   On 64-bit windows, configure actually _finds_ select when it tests for
   it, and due to the ordering of the io implementations in event.c it is
   chosen over the win32select implementation.
  
   This modification skips the test for select on win32 (we don't want
   that anyway, because Windows has its own), causing my windows box to
   get the win32select implementation.

Thank you to all involved!
