Comment:

 I think this is a bug in Tor's configure. We special-case Windows and we
 might need to special-case OSX as well, at least now. in src/or/config.c
 (258) we have:

 {{{
 #ifdef WIN32
   V(GeoIPFile,                   FILENAME, "<default>"),
 #else
   V(GeoIPFile,                   FILENAME,
     SHARE_DATADIR PATH_SEPARATOR "tor" PATH_SEPARATOR "geoip"),
 }}}

 Nick or Sebastian, could you comment on this? This seems like more than a
 simple packaging fix.
