+ o Major features:
+ - When Tor is started as root on Linux and told to switch user ID, it
+ can now retain the capabilitity to bind to low ports. By default,
+ Tor will do this only when it's switching user ID and some low
+ ports have been configured. You can change this behavior with
+ the new option KeepBindCapabilities. Closes ticket 8195.
