------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 In Tor 0.2.3.17-beta we moved to the June maxmind db. It is becoming anti-
 helpful (#6266). In particular, Karsten says the June db is way worse than
 the July db.

 The longer-term solution starts with #6318.

 The shorter-term solution is to revert to the May db, and stop updating
 until we have a solution.
