 We had a user in #tor complain that after upgrading to Firefox 9 and
 Torbutton 1.4.5.1, Torbutton would route traffic through Tor even when
 disabled.  He/she/it had had Torbutton 1.2.5 installed and in Tor-enabled
 mode before the upgrade, so Firefox was configured to use Polipo, and
 Torbutton 1.4.5.1 did not recognize that set of proxy settings as being
 ‘Tor’.
