 {{{
 $ src/or/tor geoipfile /path/not/here
 }}}
 results in this subtle line in my logs
 {{{
 Nov 01 06:47:50.000 [info] geoip_load_file(): Failed to open GEOIP file
 /path/not/here.
 }}}
 and no other troubles. That's probably not what we expected.

 I expect this is messy to fix due to the crazy "<default>" default that we
 have in config.c.

 Bug found by Sebastian.
