[Libevent-users] gcc complains about TAILQ_ENTRY

[W.C.A. Wijngaards]

Hi Ralph,

With gcc 4.1.2 on linux, I get no error messages at all. This is for a 
compile of the libevent trunk.
Perhaps the error message is useful after all - and may I suggest 
looking at the ./configure detection output for since it tries to detect 
sys/queue.h for that TAILQ stuff in there.

Best regards,
   Wouter
