Comment (by arma):

 I just tested it in 0.2.5, and it looks like it works ok. Backport sounds
 fine.

 (I'm not worried about consistency in behavior -- you're not supposed to
 delete your datadir while Tor is running, and the resulting behavior is
 undefined (but we'd like it to not kill all your pets).

 I think people are more likely to run across this behavior in practice
 when their disk goes full. And I think we behave ok in that case now.
