Since the tarball we download is generated from GitHub, there's no
saying that the tarball won't differ in a month from now.
So the hash has no value there.

YEM:
  - remove comment about changes to the manual, done in a previous
    patch;
  - after some testing, it seems tarballs are cached for only about 15
    minutes, which is largely enough to easily trigger a false hash
    mismatch.

This patch was marked as Rejected because we've switched back to using
a tarball from sourceforge for libevent instead of github.

Best regards,

Thomas
