--------------------------+------------------------------
This check only fails when building for Android and iOS, it does not do
something useful there. So when compiling for Android or iOS, it should
be disabled by default. Or perhaps even better: it should only be enabled
on platforms where it is useful. The Guardian Project, Thali, and Briar
Android builds have always used --disable-name-tool-check. The iCepa
Tor.framework also does.
