this can be fixed by removing -DNDEBUG from your C*FLAGS

[Comment 2 Marcin Kryczek (RETIRED) 2008-02-02 11:19:20 UTC]

this is a problem with all versions of libevent, including the newest one. maybe we should filter this flag out in ebuild?

Why? People shouldn't stick this info their flags at all.

Why? That's certainly a valid and reasonable option.
