 I get these once a second on tor26.

 I have sandboxing enabled, and systemd's limiting.  No apparmor, though.

 There is nothing obviously wrong with the file permissions.

 AFAICT, tor does not try anything before printing this error:
 {{{
 epoll_wait(3, {{EPOLLIN, {u32=2977, u64=2977}}}, 4096, 8) = 1
 read(2977, "", 5)                       = 0
 close(2977)                             = 0
 epoll_ctl(3, EPOLL_CTL_DEL, 2977, 7ffe878b2cd0) = -1 EBADF (Bad file
 descriptor)
 epoll_wait(3, {}, 4096, 7)              = 0
 write(42, "Jul 03 14:20:33.000 [warn] Directory /var/lib/tor/stats cannot
 be read: Permission denied\n", 90) = 90
 write(42, "Jul 03 14:20:33.000 [warn] Unable to create stats/
 directory!\n", 62) = 62

 }}}
