With all the DNS stuff that is going on at the moment, it took longer than planned to release libevent 1.4.6-stable, but here it is. You can download the source from the usual place:

- Several HTTP fixes
- Corrected handling of trailing headers in chunked replies
- Correctly deal with multi-line HTTP headers
- Improved signal handling for kqueue and epoll backends
- Various other bug fixes
