If you must have libevent-2.1* then unset the "system-libevent" flag on firefox/thunderbird. Otherwise just let libevent at version 2.0, and be happy. I really don't think there's a bug here.

Problem is that =dev-libs/libevent-2.1.8 does not trigger a rebuild of Thunderbird and Firefox.
For firefox you just need to push firefox on the emerge line: emerge libevent firefox -1 should do the job, I'm currently recompiling. I also got freshplayerplugin and tmux that needed to be pushed to emerge manually. And there's a slightly more ennoying issue with nfs-utils: (dev-libs/libevent-2.1.8:0/2.1-6::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) conflicts with <=dev-libs/libevent-2.1 required by (net-fs/nfs-utils-1.3.1-r5:0/0::gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) Meaning stable (amd64) version of nfs-utils can't stick with stable version of libevent. workaround: install =net-fs/nfs-utils-1.3.4 maybe need to ping nfs-utils maintainer to mark 1.3.4 as stable
firefox compiles and links fine with system-libevent flag active and libevent-2.1.8 installed, as should also thunderbird. As said before just manually add packages listed by --verbose-conflict to emerge. No problems with nfs-utils-1.3.4, but stable version will block libevent-2.1.8
