It's still unclear what's the difference in your environment. libevent2
also works fine on at least Arch Linux and PkgSrc[1]. So, try binary search.

I can only help debug an issue that I can reproduce either on my box or
redports.

[1] actually, there is no libevent14 in pkgsrc while Arch has it only in
    unofficial repo (AUR); other distros seem to prefer vendor defaults
    (bundled deps)
