 I run a TOR exit node (inside a chroot jail) for years already and all
 previous versions were quite stable. But since I updated to 0.2.2.34 a few
 days ago, my TOR daemon silently disappears pretty often.

 I wrote a watchdog shell script that automatically restarts Tor, if it
 crashed. Cron runs this script every minute. The result is that Tor is now
 started approximately 4 to 7 times per hour.

 I don't know, yet, what's going on, because I deactivated logging
 completely, but if you need more information (and are not yet aware of the
 problem), I'd be able to enable logging.

 Here my environment:

 Kernel: 2.6.32-34-server #77-Ubuntu SMP Tue Sep 13 20:54:38 UTC 2011
 x86_64 GNU/Linux

 libevent: 1.4.13-stable-1

 I compiled Tor from sources (not using any of the precompiled packages).
