Comment(by arma):

 From IRC:
 {{{
 > on tor-relays there is a person talking about the /var/run/tor/control
 file.
 am i correct in thinking this is something some package script makes, not
 tor
 itself?
 <weasel> arma: on 0.2.2.x debian packages, it's tor's control socket.

 <weasel> it goes to /var/run/tor.  which is also where pid is.
 > perhaps this person who wants a tor config option for it is asking for a
 reasonable thing
 <weasel> it's not a config option.
 <weasel> that's because ControlSocket is something that tor's config stuff
 appends to rather than replaces.
 <weasel> and because tor doesn't do tor.d/* style configuration, so I have
 to
 patch the settings the package should have into the binary
