Comment(by arma):

 Replying to [comment:5 nickm]:
 > Hm. I'm ambivalent. It'd be convenient, but it might cause errors.  If
 you're starting Tor as root, do you really want to create "/vaar/run/tor"
 rather than getting a "/var/run: No such file or directory" warning?

 Do you chown the parent directories to your user, or not? It would seem
 that doing it would produce bad behavior sometimes, and not doing it would
 produce bad behavior other times.
