Comment (by onirony):

 I am not sure whether this should be solved by:

 1. seeing if we can find the local copy of libtorsocks before make install
 (faulty, eg if the user moves torsocks somewhere totally different after
 make)

 **OR**

 2. Statically linking libtorsocks (right now it's a shared library, but I
 don't know if there's a good reason for that)
