Honeyd requires libevent. libevent-0.6 fails during the makefile creation stage. Relevant error message: cd . && aclocal cd . && automake --foreign Makefile cd . && autoconf configure.in:56: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ (see section `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS' If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.

same problem. If this is happening for everyone perhaps libevent-0.6 should be hard masked?

I can emerge libevent-0.7c fine here, what versions of auto{make,conf} are you using?
Just to notice: the bug is (was) about the 0.6 version. You are talking about the 0.7 version. As of THIS moment, the 0.6 is still the "stable release"
0.7c is now marked x86, not sure what to do about 0.6, it'll stay there for now, can't hurt anything.
