If you use libevhtp you can set the following callbacks for pre and post
accept:

void evhtp_set_pre_accept_cb(evhtp_t * htp, evhtp_pre_accept_cb cb, void * arg);
void evhtp_set_post_accept_cb(evhtp_t * htp, evhtp_post_accept_cb cb, void * arg);

And I urge others to start testing evhtp2: https://github.com/ellzey/libevhtp/tree/libevhtp2
This is the final step before getting merged into libevent.

(psst, websocket support)
