Comment:

 Closing as 'fixed'.  When you build Tor 0.2.2.x with Libevent 2.0.x or
 later, it links in no eventdns.c code.

 Alternatively, you can regard this as 'wontfix': we aren't going to
 backport support for that to Tor 0.2.1.x, and the versions of Libevent
 before Libevent 2.0.x have evdns code too broken for Tor to use.
