./configure --with-libevent-dir=/usr/local
rather than simply ./configure.
- If you have mysterious autoconf failures while linking openssl,
- consider setting your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the openssl lib directory.
- For example, "setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /usr/athena/lib".

-How to do static builds of tor:
-
-Tor supports linking each of the libraries it needs statically. Use the
---enable-static-X ./configure option in conjunction with the --with-X-dir
-option for libevent, zlib, and openssl. For this to work sanely, libevent
-should be built with --disable-shared --enable-static --with-pic, and
-OpenSSL should be built with no-shared no-dso.
-
-If you need to build tor so that system libraries are also statically linked,
-use the --enable-static-tor ./configure option. This won't work on OS X
-unless you build the required crt0.o yourself. It is also incompatible with
-the --enable-gcc-hardening option.
-
-An example of how to build a mostly static tor:
-./configure --enable-static-libevent \
- --enable-static-openssl \
- --enable-static-zlib \
- --with-libevent-dir=/tmp/static-tor/libevent-1.4.14b-stable \
- --with-openssl-dir=/tmp/static-tor/openssl-0.9.8r/ \
- --with-zlib-dir=/tmp/static-tor/zlib-1.2.5
-
-An example of how to build an entirely static tor:
-./configure --enable-static-tor \
- --with-libevent-dir=/tmp/static-tor/libevent-1.4.14b-stable \
- --with-openssl-dir=/tmp/static-tor/openssl-0.9.8r/ \
