Comment (by nickm):

 When I start a Tor client, I see:
 {{{
 Feb 19 09:15:40.784 [notice] Tor v0.2.6.2-alpha-dev (git-0e22da1b8de0bc10)
 running on Darwin with Libevent 2.0.22-stable, OpenSSL 0.9.8zc and Zlib
 1.2.5.
 Feb 19 09:15:40.784 [notice] Tor can't help you if you use it wrong! Learn
 how to be safe at https://www.torproject.org/download/download#warning
 Feb 19 09:15:40.784 [notice] This version is not a stable Tor release.
 Expect more bugs than usual.
 Feb 19 09:15:40.799 [notice] Read configuration file
 "/Users/nickm/.torrc".
 Feb 19 09:15:40.804 [notice] Opening Socks listener on 127.0.0.1:9050
 Feb 19 09:15:40.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 0%: Starting
 Feb 19 09:15:42.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 5%: Connecting to directory
 server
 Feb 19 09:15:42.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 10%: Finishing handshake with
 directory server
 Feb 19 09:15:42.000 [notice] We weren't able to find support for all of
 the TLS ciphersuites that we wanted to advertise. This won't hurt
 security, but it might make your Tor (if run as a client) more easy for
 censors to block.
 Feb 19 09:15:42.000 [notice] To correct this, use a more recent OpenSSL,
 built without disabling any secure ciphers or features.
 Feb 19 09:15:42.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 15%: Establishing an encrypted
 directory connection
 Feb 19 09:15:43.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 20%: Asking for networkstatus
 consensus
 Feb 19 09:15:43.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 25%: Loading networkstatus
 consensus
 Feb 19 09:15:43.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 45%: Asking for relay
 descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:43.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information,
 but not enough to build a circuit: We need more microdescriptors: we have
 15/6955, and can only build 0% of likely paths. (We have 0% of guards bw,
 0% of midpoint bw, and 0% of exit bw = 0% of path bw.)
 Feb 19 09:15:44.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 50%: Loading relay descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:45.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 55%: Loading relay descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 62%: Loading relay descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 69%: Loading relay descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 76%: Loading relay descriptors
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] We now have enough directory information to
 build circuits.
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor
 network
 Feb 19 09:15:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 90%: Establishing a Tor circuit
 Feb 19 09:15:47.000 [notice] Tor has successfully opened a circuit. Looks
 like client functionality is working.
 Feb 19 09:15:47.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 100%: Done
 }}}

 That's probably too chatty. I'm not sure I'd notice a warning in here if I
 weren't looking for it.
