 The latest versions of the Tor Browser Bundle for OSX Mavericks (I tried
 64 bit) seem to malfunction when adding a ExitNodes config line to the
 torrc inside the app package. This used to work just fine, but now Tor
 fails to connect and the following is added to the log:

 [Notice] Tor v0.2.3.25 (git-17c24b3118224d65) running on Darwin.

 Good.

 sent 0 kB and received 0 kB.

 Please fix this. It still works fine on Windows.
