What you mean by "torsocks alternatives"?

You say it is reproducible with 
torsocks 2.3.0-3 is old-oldstable
bind9-dnsutils  1:9.18.28-1~deb12u2 is olstable

Well just pin a binary and mix it with newer stuff from other releases is not 
support and will break, because the glib versions have been updated and other 
base libraries. At least you need to rebuild the old torsocks for your 
Bookworm system. This may be a workaround for you to get torssocks working 
again, but still than you are on your own and Debian cannot help you anymore 
with that setup.
We can only support combinations for software within one released version, 
otherwise we can't even update core libraries. 
Btw. only stable currently Trixie and by some extend oldstable Bookworm is 
supported anyways.

Sorry to hear, that you are still hold back by 1069949 to update - but we 
cannot do miracles :(

If I try out your command on my sid system I end up with #1069949. So I tend 
to merge it with that bugreport, that is  already reported upstream.

Regards,
