Comment (by nickm):

 Here is what I just tried.

 1: I started Tor with HiddenserviceDir abc.

      `./src/or/tor -hiddenservicedir /tmp/abc/ -hiddenserviceport 80`

 2: Then I stopped Tor.

 3: Then I copied the `abc` directory to make a new `def` directory.

 4: Then I removed the hostname from the `def` directory.

 5: Then I started tor with `def`:

      `./src/or/tor -hiddenservicedir /tmp/def/ -hiddenserviceport 80`

 I got the same hostname in def/hostname as I saw in abc/hostname.

 So I wasn't able to reproduce this bug.  What we're going to need to
 figure this out is step-by-step instructions to try to reproduce the
 problem you're seeing.
