 Sebastian irc story is that MapAddress should work without setting
 AllowDotExit to 1.

 Manual page story is that AllowDotExit is extremely dangerous.

 This torrc configuration..

 MapAddress livelyblog.com livelyblog.com.veronika.exit
 MapAddress *.livelyblog.com *.livelyblog.com.veronika.exit

 ..spews out the following story in tor's log:

 [warn] The ".exit" notation is disabled in Tor due to security risks. Set
 AllowDotExit in your torrc to enable it.
 [warn] Invalid onion hostname [scrubbed]; rejecting

 MapAddress does not work without AllowDotExit as of todays git. I have not
 tried other versions.

 If Sebastian story about MapAddress should work without AllowDotExit is
 true then Tor has a bug which could pretty please be fixed.
