253Very rarely, people want to tweak EV even more, e.g. to exclude
254or include certain watcher types or backends. This can be done by adding
255extra -D options here, or via the EV_EXTRA_DEFS environment variable.
256
257For example, if you run into compile problems because of missing memory
258fences (or you just want extra performance), you can tell EV to not support
