Comment (by mingwandroid):

 I made a test set of binaries (outside of gitian though) on a clean Ubuntu
 12.04.3 VM:
 https://www.dropbox.com/s/k5s09xhqv3mv2ti/i686-apple-darwin10.tar.xz

 .. the exact config I used was:
 https://www.dropbox.com/s/q9z66w119fvhwd2/crosstool.config

 I'm now giving gitian a go. First thing I noticed is that:
 sudo torsocks apt-get install

 .. is very noisy:

 07:54:57 libtorsocks(933): The symbol res_query() was not found in any
 shared library. The error reported was: not found!
 07:54:57 libtorsocks(933): The symbol res_search() was not found in any
 shared library. The error reported was: not found!
 07:54:57 libtorsocks(933): The symbol __res_send() was not found in any
 shared library. The error reported was: not found!
 07:54:57 libtorsocks(933): The symbol res_querydomain() was not found in
 any shared library. The error reported was: not found!

 .. should I be concerned about this?

 Also, you've been trying to build crosstool-ng under gitian, is that just
 a question of prepending "sudo torsocks" in front of all the crosstool-ng
 build commands? If you have a new script that you can commit then that
 would be good.
