 It seems there are cases where our New Identity fails under high load. In
 this case users are getting the following error:
 {{{
 Torbutton cannot safely give you a new identity. It does not have access
 to the Tor Control Port.

 Are you running Tor Browser Bundle?
 }}}
 This got reported on our blog:  https://blog.torproject.org/blog/tor-
 browser-65a5-released#comment-223933.
