I don't agree.

After talking some with the folks on #openrc, I think this problem is
caused by the shebang line at the top of the tor initscript:

> #! /bin/bash

and inparticular that it has a space.  (Looking at line 274 gives the
location of the exec; tracing through the file says that SHELLBANG is
set to " /bin/bash", and `exec " /bin/bash"` fails).

It was suggested that this might be fixed in a newer version of openrc
(specifically, at or before 0.13.6, since in that version the references
to shebang have disappeared), but I do not have the ability to test that
right now.
