Well, is there not a compat-libevent14 package (which, I presume, would
provide 1.4-compatible interfaces on top of 2.0) that Devrim has previously
mentioned simply needing to include in the repo? I don't know, myself, I'm
only grasping for clues in old messages.

compat-libevent /is/ shown on the "full package list":
http://yum.postgresql.org/news-packagelist.php

However, 'yum list available' does not show it, on my rhel6 box subscribed
to the repo.

I got the impression from Devrim's 2014 comment that it was a known
issue with a straightforward solution, just adding compat-libevent
to the repo. Was that later found to be unworkable?
