  * milestone:  => Tor: 0.2.2.x-final


Comment:

 Looks at least superficially good to me, but I don't know Windows as well
 as others.  You're right that it needs testing on XP too.

 I'd also like to make sure this won't break TBB at all; I don't know how
 TBB goes about making sure that this file is found correctly.

 Also, in the long term, perhaps we should have the default be to search
 the likeliest locations rather than looking in just one.  But maybe that's
 not necessary.  Either way, we shouldn't do *that* for 0.2.2.x.

 Putting this in the Tor 0.2.2.x milestone for now.  I think maybe it
 belongs here, since not being able to get geoip data can be a security
 issue for some people, and since this is windows-only code.
