    Some IOCP bufferevent tweaks.
    
    - Increment reference count of bufferevents before initiating overlapped
      operations to prevent the destructor from being called while operations
      are pending. The only portable way of canceling overlapped ops is to
      close the socket.
    
    - Translate error codes to WSA* codes.
    
    - Better handling of errors.
    
    - Add an interface to add and del "virtual" events. Because IOCP
      bufferevents don't register any events with the base, the event loop
      has no way of knowing they exist. This causes the loop to terminate
      prematurely. event_base_{add,del}_virtual increment/decrement base's
      event count so the loop runs while there are any enabled IOCP
      bufferevents.

    $ ./configure
    $ make
    $ make verify   # (optional)
    $ sudo make install
    
    1. BUILDING AND INSTALLATION (In Depth)
    
    To build libevent, type
    
    $ ./configure && make
    
         (If you got libevent from the git repository, you will
          first need to run the included "autogen.sh" script in order to
          generate the configure script.)
    
    Install as root via
    
    # make install
    
    You can run the regression tests by running
    
    $ make verify
    
    Before, reporting any problems, please run the regression tests.
    
    To enable the low-level tracing build the library as:
    
       CFLAGS=-DUSE_DEBUG ./configure [...]
    
    Standard configure flags should work.  In particular, see:
    
       --disable-shared          Only build static libraries
       --prefix                  Install all files relative to this directory.
    
    
    The configure script also supports the following flags:
    
       --enable-gcc-warnings     Enable extra compiler checking with GCC.
       --disable-malloc-replacement
                                 Don't let applications replace our memory
                                 management functions
       --disable-openssl         Disable support for OpenSSL encryption.
       --disable-thread-support  Don't support multithreaded environments.
