Comment (by arma):

 If we want to get fancier, we should look at exit policies which inherit
 the default exit policy, not just ones that match it exactly. For example,
 somebody whose current exit policy is "reject *:80" will still be
 influenced by this change.

 I also think we'll want a log_notice for people who don't specify any exit
 policy lines. I haven't figured out exactly how we should do it though.
 For example, that approach would preclude putting an explicit "reject *.*"
 line in the sample torrc file (which would help people understand what the
 default is), since then we wouldn't be able to tell whether the user had
 written her own exit policy or what. Maybe we want a log_notice in any
 case if the state file was written by 0.2.4.x or earlier, to let the
 operator know if she happens to be looking at the logs for the one time
 that they upgrade happened. Hm.
