libevent-1.3d:
Bug fixes in the HTTP layer.
libevent-1.3c:
Small bug and portability fixes.
Worth mentioning is that patch-ab and patch-ac were applied upstream.
As usual with libevent, this breaks the ABI due to .so naming, so a
small revbump sweep will be needed.
- configure script already has provision for different compiler inline
directives, just not every file was using it.
- u_intXX_t types need to be fixed in installed event.h too.
