Comment (by dkm):

 The difference is in canonicalization of directory paths: the failing
 first test is trying to verify config parsing and expects a certain
 trailing slash to be stripped.

 The code to perform the stripping does not exist, however, and it wouldn't
 make any difference if it did.

 Which is a symptom of the more basic fact that the tests haven't been kept
 up to date with the rest of the code, are very sparse to begin with, and
 not very useful in general. Especially since the proposed patch barely
 touches parsing.

 Which is why I didn't rely on them while fixing the code.

 The only way to actually test this is to create a basic config, run the
 program and use `dig` or such to establish that the responses are what
 they should be.

 I've been meaning to write a short guide on how to set it up. But that
 procedure is not changed by the patch in question, so whoever already
 knows how to set up and run a tordnsel instance could just give it a go
 and see if it works?
