Changes (by nickm):

  * status:  new => needs_review
  * milestone:  Tor: 0.2.4.x-final => Tor: 0.2.5.x-final


Comment:

 We *can* do this with global_default_options, but it turns out that there
 are enough other places we do this that it would be a mistake.  Instead,
 we should have *another* or_options_t object that tracks torrc+settings,
 without changes made internally by Tor.

 That's doable, but it's too feature-y for 0.2.4 IMO.  I have a TOTALLY
 UNTESTED fix in branch "bug4244" in my public repository.
