Yup.  No --with-tcmalloc there.  For whatever reason, the freebsd
build process didn't pass --with-tcmalloc to configure.

If the ports maintainer isn't being responsive, maybe some other
freebsd people could have a look?  If the build process is telling Tor
the wrong stuff, then that is almost certainly something going wrong
with the build process.
