14:36 < dave> tor has some sort of weird bug
14:48 < dave> 0xd21102 <select+922>:  mov    0x440(%edi),%esi
14:48 < dave> 0xd21108 <select+928>:  mov    %esi,0xfffffe70(%ebp)
14:48 < dave> (gdb) print/x $edi
14:48 < dave> $2 = 0x448

hmmm...let's google a bit....oh.

What won't work with this?

...

Finally, the tsocks library is NOT thread-safe, with or without this
patch.
You should not 'torify' multithreaded applications.

(for what it's worth, Verizon needs the manual too)
(seriously, if there's some dude I can pay to fix this, it would be
cool to at least know the price)
