socket creation error on debian 6 x64
while the apt package for 0.2.2.33 from the squeeze repo works fine, installing 0.2.3.4 from experimental-squeeze onto the same machine yields the following:
Sep 15 13:02:47.293 [notice] Tor v0.2.3.4-alpha (git-9986082fc4414b7d). This is experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity.

the machine in question is an up-to-date debian squeeze x64 VM running on a xen host. i'm currently strapped for time, hence no proper debugging on my part. the problem existed for the previous experimental version as well, so it wasnt the latest update that broke it
