 Apparently, TBB users who use PTs, get hit by:
 {{{
       log_notice(LD_GENERAL, "Pluggable transport proxy (%s) does not
 provide "
                  "any needed transports and will not be launched.", line);
 }}}
 since no one really uses all the available PTs in the TBBs.

 Roger suggested downgrading that log message to info or something. I think
 this makes sense, since it only hits TBB users and they don't learn any
 useful information from it. They also think it's an error and it confuses
 them.

 Roger suggested tor-0.2.5 as the target release for this, since the TBB
 people want tbb-4.0 to include 0.2.5.x.
