------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 A bridge that doesn't have a geoip file reports empty statistics, implying
 that it saw zero users.  That's confusing, because we cannot distinguish
 this case from a bridge that actually didn't see any users.  The bridge
 should simply leave out its statistics if it doesn't have a geoip file.

 There are [https://metrics.torproject.org/papers/bridge-report-usage-
 stats-2012-04-30.pdf not many bridges affected] by this bug, but we should
 probably fix it anyway.  0.2.3.x or 0.2.4.x?
