Thanks Roger, has the OSX version detection not been added to this branch? I had a crash after taking the 'NoKqueue' out.

Bugfix on > 0.2.1.9-alpha. > - In tor-resolve, when the Tor client to use is specified by > <hostname>:<port>, actually use the specified port rather than > defaulting to 9050.
