--------------------------+--------------------------------
 With tor commit 3df954549232bf5516ba5fce13c66a3ac91524a4 :

 on FreeBSD 10.3-STABLE (r311284), FreeBSD version 1003511 libc seems to
 have trouble using setenv() and issues a warning about NULL pointer
 assigned to the MAKEOVER environment variable.

 As a result, setenv() does not complete and the test fails:

 {{{
 util/expand_filename: test: environment corrupt; missing value for
 MAKEOVER

   FAIL ../tor/src/test/test_util.c:1725: assert("/home/itv/" OP_EQ str):
 </home/itv/> vs </home/saper/>
   [expand_filename FAILED]
 }}}

 This is almost certainly not a bug in tor, logging for further
 investigation.
