 When I tried to compile Torsocks v2.2.0 on an embedded device (with Linux
 2.6.31.8 kernel), it gave me this error:


 {{{
   CC       test_socks5.o
   CCLD     test_socks5
 ../../src/lib/.libs/libtorsocks.so: undefined reference to `epoll_pwait'
 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
 Makefile:606: recipe for target 'test_socks5' failed
 make[2]: *** [test_socks5] Error 1
 }}}

 Because the epoll_pwait and the epoll system call has been implemented in
 the 2.6.32 AFAIK.
