 @dgoulet

 Neither your branch ''nor'' the current official torsocks source code can
 even build on MacOS due, firstly, to {{{LIBC_ACCEPT4_NAME_STR);}}} in
 torsocks.c, line 237. In addition, line 239 checks for
 {{{tsocks_libc_accept4}}} which, of course, will not be defined on MacOS.
 This can be easily fixed with the following patch for torsocks.c:

 [https://github.com/seisvelas/torsocks/commit/e99d2dbd207e029e2a6a0469fcf36a771d120c25]

 Using that patch I am able to build your branch as well as standard
 torsocks on MacOS.
