What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. starting privoxy service
* Starting privoxy ...
2013-08-31 14:30:27.700 00000001 Error: Wrong number of parameters for 
forward-socks4a directive in configuration file.
 * start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/privoxy'                                                                                                        [ !! ]
 * ERROR: privoxy failed to start

Adding a period to end of socks forward declaration fixes problem. As read in 
privoxy config file (Section 5.2)

diff
-forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 

+forward-socks4a / 127.0.0.1:9050 .

I've checked the config on the rc1.9 fresh install.
The period is in the config file and the line is commented out:
#        forward-socks5   /               127.0.0.1:9050 .

I suspect you did this typo yourself.

Anyway, net-proxy/privoxy is a gentoo package. Feel free to open a bug report 
at bugs.gentoo.org

ps. Thanks for good words ;-) Please feel free to file more suggestions/bugs. 
We do care.

the same goes for the reported socks4 line:
#        forward-socks4   /               socks-gw.example.com:1080  .
