Comment:
You should be able to exclude nodes with unknown country by using the
country code "??", as in "ExcludeNodes {us},{ru},{??}". If that doesn't
work for excluding unknown countries, that's a bug.
Some nodes have been getting stuffed into the virtual "A1" country code by
maxmind. That should be fixed by our fix to #6626, which should go out in
the next version of Tor.
