31 
32   Potentially non-threadsafe versions of the functions in event.h: provided
33   only for backwards compatibility.
34 
35   In the oldest versions of Libevent, event_base was not a first-class
36   structure.  Instead, there was a single event base that every function
37   manipulated.  Later, when separate event bases were added, the old functions
38   that didn't take an event_base argument needed to work by manipulating the
39   "current" event base.  This could lead to thread-safety issues, and obscure,
40   hard-to-diagnose bugs.
41 
42   @deprecated All functions in this file are by definition deprecated.
