Comment:

 I'd like to get this fixed before 0.2.8-rc, but it might not make it.

 Here's how I'd like to fix it:
 * put the attached sample code into two functions in tor to detect the two
 different non-standard configs;
 * when we open the ControlPort, check if either of those conditions
 applies, and close it with a warning if they do;
 * check it works on the BSD test environment from s7r;
 * merge in 0.2.8 if it's done in time;
 * refactor to use #17949 if we can in 0.2.9.
