Comment:

 Also, if you issue a SETCONF to tor while it's in this state, it will
 abort with:

     [err] set_options: Bug: Acting on config options left us in a broken
 state. Dying. (on Tor 0.2.9.9 008f2846b9b53d52)

 This is not such an important crash, because it only happens on platforms
 which remove resolv.conf (which as far as I know, is only macOS when the
 network is down). And I think it only happens on relays, not clients. But
 it would still be nice to fix it.
