Comment (by starlight):

 Just checked the November `geopip` found in TBB 4.5a3.

 It has some of the above blocks, but is still badly
 out of date.  This region is in rapid flux and my guess
 is with IPv4 space exhaustion well along, many such
 highly fragmented and rapidly evolving regions exist.

 Could someone script a daily `geoip` build that's
 posted publicly?  That way operators who want
 semi-accurate `bridge-ips` in their relay statistics
 can keep it reasonably fresh.  This will mitigate
 the unallocated region bug as well.
