when installing module gcc complains 'undefined reference to current_base' in simplehttp.c

[lamusicoscos]

I'm using libevent 2.0.12.
After "cd simplehttp ; make && make install", I switched to simplequeue to make install, but gcc began to complain, saying "../simplehttp/libsimplehttp.a(simplehttp.o): In function simplehttp_init': /home/lamusicoscos/Base/bitly-simplehttp-10406dc/simplehttp/simplehttp.c:152: undefined reference tocurrent_base'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [simplequeue] Error 1".
But being with libevent 1.4, everything's OK. I'm just wondering why it happened and how can I make it work with libevent 2.0.12+.

Hi. As you discovered, simplehttp is only compatible with libevent 1.4 at the moment. I haven't investigated what it would take to switch to libevent 2.0, but if you would like to start work on the changes necessary, that would be awesome.
