--------------------------+--------------------------
 Tor version 0.3.5.8 ignores DNSListenAddress.

 While it logs
 May 21 08:59:58 raven Tor-transparent[32235]: Skipping obsolete
 configuration option 'TransListenAddress'
 May 21 08:59:58 raven Tor-transparent[32235]: Skipping obsolete
 configuration option 'DNSListenAddress'

 it still starts, and then *binds* to 127.0.0.1:53, breaking all sorts of
 things.

 If it finds obsolete configuration options, it really, really, really must
 not ignore then and do unwanted stuff.
