Comment (by yawning):

 Not allowing `DisableDebuggerAttachment` to be disabled while Tor is
 running is *very* explicit and intentional behavior and will not be
 changed (#4650).  For what it's worth `SETCONF` provides a more graceful
 failure mode here.

 Perhaps SIGHUP should be more resilient to configuration reload failures,
 but that's entirely unrelated to `DisableDebuggerAttachment` and should
 probably be a separate ticket.

 (My gut feeling says to  WONTFIX/NOTABUG this, though I'll wait for nickm
 or someone else to make the decision here.)
