+ o Minor features (crypto):
+ - Fix a segfault during startup: If unix socket was configured as
+ listener (such as a ControlSocket or a SocksPort unix socket), and
+ tor was started as root but not configured to switch to another
+ user, tor would segfault while trying to string compare a NULL
+ value. Fixes bug 18261; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patch by weasel.
