 Replying to [comment:6 teor]:
 > Authorities only provide a default implementation if the relay claims to
 be a pre-protover Tor version.

 line.

 Hmmm, protover was introduced in tor-0.2.9.4, with that Tor version
 (0.2.9.11), `pr` can't be empty... But I guess, I should have asked if the
 dirauth do such validation that is Tor version + pr line. In other words,
 can I modify my tor to have an empty `pr` line and then it is accepted as
 is with any Tor version I put there?
