[tor-relays] A bug or a feature ?

[livak]

The ORPort option of torrc was changed fom 9030 to 80,
the relay was sent a HUP signal:

kill -HUP [PID]

and exited with:

Sep 18 07:59:04.000 [notice] Received reload signal (hup). Reloading config and resetting internal state.
Sep 18 07:59:04.000 [notice] Read configuration file "/usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc".

Sep 18 07:59:04.000 [warn] Restart failed (config error?). Exiting.

When the relay was manually restarted and it successfully ran.

Can it be considered a bug ?
