Comment (by Sebastian):

 Branch libevent2 in my repository. It raises the required version to
 2.0.10-stable or above. The rationale for not going with >2 .0.1 or even
 just > 2 is that this allows us to simplify a bunch more checks and all
 the distributions I've found all have at least 2.0.16. I didn't want to
 raise the dependency to 2.0.16 in case I missed anything, but 2.0.10 is
 the first stable release in the libevent release series.

 I want to particularly highlight the "delete wrong comments" commit,
 because maybe the one comment I removed is not actually wrong. In that
 case maybe the behaviour of the function is strange and we should fix it.
