net/torsocks gives "authentication failure" and password error.

Example:
$ torsocks wget www.ipmango.com/api/myip
Resolving www.ipmango.com (www.ipmango.com)... 173.255.230.5 \ Connecting to
www.ipmango.com (www.ipmango.com)|173.255.230.5|:80... 17:47:01
libtorsocks(28774): Need a password in torsocks.conf or $TORSOCKS_PASSWORD to
authenticate withfailed: Connection refused.

This is a documented problem:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9695

The solution is to upgrade to torsocks 2.0, where #9695 is fixed
