Excuses about not throwing an exception on dispatcher's dispatch() and exit().

Since libevent don't specify very clearly when and what event_dispatch() and
event_exitloop() returns errors, I cannot specify precisely the exceptions to
throw, so the user must manage the error codes returned by itselfs until
libevent gets documented.
