  * priority:  normal => major


Comment:

 Now that there is a new release of TBB coming, please fix this issue
 before hundreds of users start complaining about "The proxy server is
 refusing connections".

 I can't help you do this yet, but __at least__ do a grep search for all
 occurrences of "9050" (and also "9150") in the codebase.

 No-one working on the Tor project should '''EVER''' commit "WET" code.
 "WET" is the opposite of "DRY".
 "DRY" = Don't Repeat Yourself.
 "WET" can mean: "We Enjoy Typing".
