 Very good, thanks. I merged your changes into my repo.

 These are my recommendations as to the next development steps for the
 client:
  1. Make it use pyptlib. This will replace all the
 `TOR_PT_MANAGED_TRANSPORT_VER` and `TOR_PT_CLIENT_TRANSPORTS` stuff.
 Unfortunately it won't replace the `CMETHOD` read loop; you still have to
 do that by hand.
  2. Implement the socat SOCKS part in Python. The program needs to
 implement a TCP listener and a SOCKS4 (don't do SOCKS5) client. This might
 be implemented as a Python thread running an accept loop, with new TCP
 connections being split off as Python threads.
