#10447: TBB 3.5 doesn't allow multiple socksport lines in torrc because it uses
deprecated sockslistenaddress in torrc-defaults

--------------------------------------+-----------------------
 If I manually edit Data/Tor/torrc in TBB3.5 to say
 {{{
 socksport 9150
 socksport 9160
 }}}

 then my TBB fails to start Tor, because Tor says
 {{{
 Dec 20 00:49:47.169 [warn] SocksListenAddress can't be used when there are
 multiple SocksPort lines
 Dec 20 00:49:47.169 [warn] Failed to parse/validate config: Invalid
 SocksPort/SocksListenAddress configuration
 }}}

 The man page says SocksListenAddress is deprecated as of 0.2.3.x-alpha.

 I think we should simply remove that sockslistenaddress line from torrc-
 defaults.
