Should I link this manually? Which *pthreads? I only find c++
lwm_pthreads on Debian6.

Debian Squeeze still has the old 1.x version of libevent, but 2.x is
needed (contains libevent_pthreads among other things).
squeeze-backports has something, but I haven't tested it yet:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze-backports/libevent-2.0-5

If it works this way, that would be good to know. I would add a small
note to the installation instructions then.

The alternative would be to download and build the latest libevent manually.
