I *think* /vsar/log/tor is supposed to be a directory, not sure about
that .... In any event, I also started privoxy & it had no problems
starting, setting up its /var/log dir, etc.:

both privoxy & tor have their own users defined in passwd, neither are
in the group wheel .... who knows .... TIA for any further clues ....
