Comment (by atagar):

 Sorry, I might be missing something. Quick look seems to indicate Trunnel
 is some C parser thing?

 How is this related to this? And are you advocating for stem to distribute
 native code? If so that would be a big wrinkle for distribution.

 Is the argument that the ORPort protocol is so tricky only native code can
 talk with it? If so then this ticket indeed might be moot.
