The eventlog version could matter for people building 64-bit stuff
using a compiler other than gcc.

Looks like 0.2.12+20120504+1700 is the first version which has the fix
for the issue I ran into (alloca.h wasn't included)

diff -urN eventlog-0.2.12/src/evtstr.c

So please make sure that 0.2.13 is available in the expected place as
well, the below link doesn't list it:
