Many thanks for the prompt response *and* for the new release, to which 
I just upgraded!

I will report any new strange behaviour...

About hardware problems, I do not think so, because my server has been 
online for 2 years 24/7/365 and it is absolutely stable. And actually 
just cron daemon has died twice since I installed tor, which I find 
awkward taking into consideration that tor runs as a non-privileged user...

Anyway, I'll see how things are going with 0.0.9.2.
