+AUTOCONF SUPPORT

+    Instead of using EV_STANDALONE=1 and providing your config in whatever
+    way you want, you can also m4_include([libev.m4]) in your configure.ac
+    and leave EV_STANDALONE off. ev.c will then include "config.h" and
+    configure itself accordingly.

-       For example, the perl EV module uses this:
+        The name of the ev.h header file used to include it. The default
+        if undefined is <ev.h> in event.h and "ev.h" in ev.c. This can

+        conflicts.

+       argument in all cases, or to use method calls instead of plain
+       function calls in C++.
