 Since version 0.1.1 Torbirdy uses port 9150, as used by the TBB. Port 9050
 is still used by most other Tor installations, e.g. the Debian package
 provided by the Tor project. Using different ports allows to run a TBB
 next to a regular Tor install.

 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/torbirdy#SetupSteps mentions
 that one should

 > make sure Tor is running with default client settings (SocksPort is
 > listening on 127.0.0.1:9150)

 but ideally Torbirdy should also check the ''default'' default port 9050.

 This will probably also be usefull, when #3948 is implemented and some
 newer TBBs use 9050 again.
