I tried to follow the updated instructions here and it's not working for me, I get the same output from make when I set the LDFLAGS and when I don't. This is for both tmux 2.2 and 2.2 (with the version of libevent specified above). The only difference was that I had PREFIX=${HOME} instead of PREFIX=/usr/local/
