Hi,

Given how bad the statu quo is wrt. multi-arch in torsocks,
so close to the Trixie freeze my main question is:
Does this change impact the safety of single-architecture usage?
(Rationale: I don't think multi-arch support *for torsocks* is an
important enough feature to warrant any safety decrease in the main
use case for this tool. If we can't do this safely I'd rather see
torsocks detect attempts to use it under multi-arch and abort early.)
Regarding the code review itself: I don't feel competent; I suggest
asking upstream's thoughts (which IMO is generally a good idea when
disabling their safety checks).
Cheers,
