Comment:

 When I started to code, the option was actually called
 ControlSocketsGroupWritable.

 But while digging in the code to see where to implement this, I realised
 that the easiest way would affect all unix sockets created by Tor. Right
 now, unix sockets are only used by the ControlSockets option, so the
 rename is not false either, but care will need to be taken if any other
 unix socket is added.

 Is strange that git-am failed... Thanks for taking care of this patch! :)
