Comment(by mr-4):
OK, just after an hour of moderate load I can confirm that the patch works
- Tor doesn't fall over any more and is quite happy to serve floods of dns
requests together with my bittorrent software, using the patched
libevent2.
Nick, I was very successful in cross-compiling libevent with, I am pleased
to confirm, minimal effort (just applied my "standard" set of patches on
the .spec file for cross compilation and it worked first time) - I was
even able to optimise one or two things in the rpm build process on that
package as well.
The patch I attached in my last response above was, as it turned out,
Fedora's attempt to deal with the multilib issue I highlighted to them
more than 3 months ago.
That patch is very crude and it does not work, but since this is in the
rawhide repository I wouldn't get too worried about this - not yet! Hope
they will be able to fix it before FC15 comes about. Though it baffles me
why are they not adopting the approach I suggested to them...
Anyway, tomorrow I intend to apply more solid loads on that machine and
will post again. If everything is OK and everyone's happy this bug may be
closed. Does everyone agree with this course of plan/action?
