i found the problem: event indeed does not like it when I try to use
event objects after the callback returns. (this is bad and forced me to
implement my own event object wrapper).

sure.i can make a copy. but what sense does it make to copy a perl
structure when you just can store it in a variable ;)

anyway, this could be documented, but I worked around it, so no problem.

explains it well (I just want that fixed Event-0.84 ;)
