---------------------------+------------------------------
 After updating Tor to 0.3.5.7 on my Debian system, Proxychains won't
 connect to Tor via SOCKS5 (SOCKS4 works normally). In handshake,
 proxychains sents auth methods "no auth" and "user/pass", Tor selects
 "user/pass", proxychains sents empty username and pass, Tor returns
 success status, proxychains sents connection request, Tor returns general
 failure status. If application don't send "user/pass" auth method, Tor
 selects "no auth" in socks handshake and connection establishes normally.

 In log:
 Tor[]: socks5: parsing failed - invalid user/pass authentication message.
 Tor[]: Fetching socks handshake failed. Closing.

 Wireshark log is in attachment.

 Sorry for bad English.
