I tried that torrent and client_test successfully announced itself with
the tracker. Maybe this is something related to OS X (in that I haven't
tested libtorrent at all on OSX).

You could run an etherreal (www.ethereal.com) session and save the
netwok traffic between the client and the tracker, and compare it to the
official client.

I will borrow an OS X box at the end of this week, then I will be able
to look closer at this issue.
