Comment (by teor):

 Also, this pull request does not update the man page for the approved
 routers file.

 Embarassingly, there are two entries in the man page for this file:
 {{{
  DataDirectory/approved-routers

     Only used by authoritative directory servers. This file lists the
 status of routers by their identity fingerprint. Each line lists a status
 and a fingerprint separated by whitespace. See your fingerprint file in
 the DataDirectory for an example line. If the status is !reject then
 descriptors from the given identity (fingerprint) are rejected by this
 server. If it is !invalid then descriptors are accepted but marked in the
 directory as not valid, that is, not recommended.

  DataDirectory/approved-routers

     Authorities only. This file is used to configure which relays are
 known to be valid, invalid, and so forth.
 }}}
