Comment(by atagar):

 > New stable minor releases shouldn't break, say, all the arm users if we
 can help it.

 I should make another arm release at some point soonish to get out several
 other bug fixes too so I wouldn't object to bumping up those plans. Arm is
 already fixed and unaffected by torctl for this (as mentioned on irc I
 needed to duplicate this torctl functionality in order to add other
 unmerged torctl features like control socket support).
