Comment:

 This issue could be related to either:
 * spaces in unix sockets, and the shared tor data directory in Application
 Support, or
 * using the same torrc (and therefore SOCKSPort) due to the shared tor
 data directory in Application Support.

 But we can't tell unless we can see Tor's log messages.
 They might be in ~/Library/Application\ Support/TorBrowser-
 Data/Tor/notice.log
 Or they might be available through a button in the "Tor exited during
 startup" message window.
