My bad... if anyone is interested in trying to reproduce, fetch
libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz from http://libevent.org/. Then:

$ export CC=/usr/local/bin/clang CXX=/usr/local/bin/clang++
$ ./configure
$ make CC="/usr/local/bin/clang --analyze" CXX="/usr/local/bin/clang++
--analyze"

If you try to pass --analyze through CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS, then configure will die.
