I tried, but the changes are nontrivial and would boil down to a lot of
work - however, does memcached really need the full libevent? wouldn't the
libevent emulation inside libev work for it as well?
Note that the libevent emulation isn't 100% - only the typical behaviour
is implemented (for example, in libevent, the last event base created gets
the signals, while in libev, it is always the default event loop, which is
the first event base created by the emulation), so some work is expected
for a program relying on libevent's idiosyncrasies, but that's true for
libevent+libev as well.
So in short, if memcached doesn't rely on libevent specifics such as
the http and dns code, the libevent core emulation inside libev should
suffice.
