Comment:

 Replying to [comment:4 pospeselr]:
 > The log message we receive from tor all seem to have a trailing space.

 Gosh. That shouldn't be happening. We should put a bit of energy into
 learning why it happens, rather than just trimming it and leaving the
 weirdness in place.

 Option one, Tor is somehow including a trailing space in its log events.
 If so, we should stop. Option two, Tor Launcher is somehow adding a
 trailing space when it receives the log events.

 Does Tor Launcher see trailing spaces on events of other kinds?

 I am cc'ing atagar since he either dealt with this in stem, or has no idea
 what we're talking about.
