[Libevent-users] Re: AMD Ath64 [solved]

[Intruder VS1400]

Okay this is weird. It just magically started working without me doing
anything. I shut down for the night, so maybe ldconfig is slow to act
on my machine or something.  I don't know why tor configure said it
couldn't run the library, but it seems to be doing it just fine today.

If at first you don't cc... reboot, compile again.

Sorry for the terrible pun.  :D
