Comment (by asn):

 I spent an hour today doing some debugging here. The main issue that
 causes the bug here is that when we enter `rend_service_prune_list()`
 after the HUP,  to shutdown old services, we encounter
 `rend_service_staging_list` being `NULL` and we stop the pruning by
 hitting:
 {{{
   /* Don't try to prune anything if we have no staging list. */
   if (!rend_service_staging_list) {
     return;
   }
 }}}

 Seems like `rend_service_staging_list` gets `NULL`ed during the initial
 service configuration (before the HUP) in
 `rend_service_prune_list_impl_()` with:
 {{{
   /* Finally, nullify the staging list pointer as we don't need it anymore
    * and it needs to be NULL before the next reload. */
   rend_service_staging_list = NULL;
 }}}
 and then nothing actually sets up the staging list after the HUP because
 we are not adding any services, so we skip the post-HUP pruning...

 I guess what we need to do is to setup the staging list even when we have
 0 services to configure? Or alternatively, don't check for
 `!rend_service_prune_list` when pruning? Need to dig more into this...
