Thanks! It looks like MacOSX is doing some extra checking
which is great and that extra debug info helps a lot - for
instance this is where it is crashing:

That line is this strncpy() in the library:

    strncpy(unsocname.sun_path, TSOCK_PATH, 107);  /* sun_path is defined to be 108 bytes */

Sadly the assumption that that it is 108 is true for
Linux, but not on MacOSX as it's just 104 there. It's
not uncommon, see this for instance:

http://bugs.xmms2.xmms.se/view.php?id=2263

The fix was this patch:

http://git.xmms.se/?p=xmms2-anthonyg.git;a=commitdiff;h=076b74e75b6efeca4128d224e3e835f3d9ef2d61

I've CC'd this to the Torque developers list so that
the same fix can be applied. Nice catch!

cheers,
Chris
