What type of things don't work? That update was about 2.5 months ago, did you
do all the normal things like rebooting after reconfiguring?

here's the patch that updated torsocks. (attached)
to have your own, custom torsocks from the previous version, you could add a
file torsocks.scm, and build it with `guix build -f torsocks.scm`
#:use-module ...
(define-public torsocks-custom <-- I'm not sure if this line is necessary here
(package (inherit torsocks)
(name "torsocks-custom")
(version "1.2")
(source (origin
(method url-fetch)
(uri (string-append
"http://torsocks.googlecode.com/files/torsocks-"
version ".tar.gz"))
(sha256
(base32
"1m0is5q24sf7jjlkl0icfkdc0m53nbkg0q72s57p48yp4hv7v9dy"))))
(arguments '())
(native-inputs '(()))))
