When libevent was compiled before, links will use it as optional
dependency:
$ output/host/usr/bin/i586-buildroot-linux-uclibc-readelf -a output/target/usr/bin/links | grep NEEDED
0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [liblzma.so.5]
0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libbz2.so.1.0]
0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libz.so.1]
0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libevent-2.0.so.5]
0x00000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.1]
(xz support will be added with the next patch of this series)
