This is a major update, too many improvements to list here, see
the ChangeLog in the distribution for details.
pkgsrc changes:
-remove dependency on tsocks; this is just one possible way to
make applications use SOCKS; add a hint to MESSAGE
-use the pkgsrc libevent - the NetBSD builtin is old, and tor
complains loudly if it doesn't like the libevent version
-make the rc.d script executable

pkgsrc changes:
- depend on tsocks to allow torification of other applications
- create a user for this application to run as
- install a suitable rc script
ChangeLog says:
o Bugfixes on 0.0.9:
- Fix an assert bug that took down most of our servers: when
a server claims to have 500 GB of bandwidthburst, don't
freak out.
- Don't crash as badly if we have spawned the max allowed number
of dnsworkers, or we're out of file descriptors.
- Block more file-sharing ports in the default exit policy.
- MaxConn is now automatically set to the hard limit of max
file descriptors we're allowed (ulimit -n), minus a few for
logs, etc.
- Give a clearer message when servers need to raise their
ulimit -n when they start running out of file descriptors.
- SGI Compatibility patches from Jan Schaumann.
- Tolerate a corrupt cached directory better.
- When a dirserver hasn't approved your server, list which one.
- Go into soft hibernation after 95% of the bandwidth is used,
not 99%. This is especially important for daily hibernators who
have a small accounting max. Hopefully it will result in fewer
cut connections when the hard hibernation starts.
- Load-balance better when using servers that claim more than
800kB/s of capacity.
- Make NT services work (experimental, only used if compiled in).

Pkgsrc changes:
- make this build under IRIX.
- tor has moved to tor.eff.org
Version changes since 0.0.9.2:
- Backport the cpu use fixes from main branch, so busy servers won't
need as much processor time.
- Work better when we go offline and then come back, or when we
run Tor at boot before the network is up. We do this by
optimistically trying to fetch a new directory whenever an
application request comes in and we think we're offline -- the
human is hopefully a good measure of when the network is back.
- Backport some minimal hidserv bugfixes: keep rend circuits open as
long as you keep using them; actually publish hidserv descriptors
shortly after they change, rather than waiting 20-40 minutes.
- Enable Mac startup script by default.
- Fix duplicate dns_cancel_pending_resolve reported by Giorgos Pallas.
- When you update AllowUnverifiedNodes or FirewallPorts via the
controller's setconf feature, we were always appending, never
resetting.
- When you update HiddenServiceDir via setconf, it was screwing up
the order of reading the lines, making it fail.
- Do not rewrite a cached directory back to the cache; otherwise we
will think it is recent and not fetch a newer one on startup.
- Workaround for webservers that lie about Content-Encoding: Tor
now tries to autodetect compressed directories and compression
itself. This lets us Proxypass dir fetches through apache.
