Tor doesn't actually report it is starting in system.log. The
StartupParameters.plist in /Library/StartupItems/Tor requires
the Network be up before Tor will start. Privoxy also requires
this, so if Privoxy does start, then the Network is online.
Privoxy generally starts far earlier in the boot process than
Tor.
I've seen this problem sporadically as well on my own machine.
It generally appears if the network hiccups on start, or is
delayed, then Tor never is started; yet Privoxy does start.
I opened a flyspray task to remind me to investigate this
further.
