Comment (by dgoulet):

 Hrm that's a bit weird because the default is to use stderr... If you look
 at src/common/log.c +166, a check is made on stderr if it exists and valid
 else it's going to use 0 (stdout).

 Is there at some point anything that closes stderr in your use case that
 could prevent torsocks from using it?
