Thanks. Now I seem to be getting disabled proxy:stratum "To enable proxy:stratum, install libevent 2.0.3+", when I do ./configure. After I received that error, I installed libevent-2.0-5, and re-ran ./autogen.sh, then ./configure again, but it still gives me the message that the proxy is disabled.
When you install libmicrohttpd and libevent there are generally instructions printed out on the screen for other steps you need to take afterward. You may need to run ldconfig and / or logout & back in.
Oddly enough, I am able to run the bfgminer with --http-port option, and my cubes connect to it as stratum. High reject rates though (20%), may be the pool.
