Comment (by dcf):

 Replying to [comment:20 dcf]:
 > The problem is that Finder in Mavericks sets the current directory to /,
 so relative paths to pluggable transport executables don't work. What we
 can do is move `tor` to `tor.real` and then create a shell script `tor`
 with something like:
 > {{{
 > #!/bin/sh
 > cd $(dirname $0)
 > exec ./tor.real $@
 > }}}

 In [https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-
 transports/bundle.git/commitdiff/bd34a2d829c8847b5d5736e0abfed1a8d6a62378
 what I actually committed], I added some quoting so that it will work even
 when in a directory whose name contains spaces.
 {{{
 #!/bin/sh
 cd "$(dirname "$0")"
 exec ./tor.real "$@"
 }}}
