Note, the only think changed in event now (via
https://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=1542560)
is that event *checks* that atomics work as required for
event... if the check fails, it means that event has
been "broken" on that system, assuming it ever hit
blocked idlers, for a *long* time...
You should be seeing it in trunk as well...
