The file /Library/Privoxy/config was overwritten with a stock config
for privoxy 3.0.x. The one I'm using was modified from the stock for
3.0.6.

I upgraded this morning:

Sep 19 10:12:37 stbmac Tor[2140]: Please upgrade! This version of Tor
(0.1.2.16) is obsolete, according to 3/3 version-listing network
statuses. Versions recommended by at least 1 authority are: 0.1.2.17,
0.2.0.6-alpha\n
Sep 19 10:12:37 stbmac Tor[2140]: We now have enough directory
information to build circuits.\n
Sep 19 10:12:40 stbmac Tor[2140]: Interrupt: will shut down in 240
seconds. Interrupt again to exit now.\n
Sep 19 10:12:41 stbmac Tor[2140]: Tor has successfully opened a
circuit. Looks like client functionality is working.\n
Sep 19 10:12:41 stbmac Tor[2140]: Now checking whether ORPort
76.173.217.193:9001 and DirPort 76.173.217.193:9030 are reachable...
(this may take up to 20 minutes -- look for log messages indicating
success)\n
Sep 19 10:12:42 stbmac Tor[2140]: Sigint received a second time; exiting now.\n

Sep 19 10:15:51 stbmac Tor[2318]: Detected state file from old version
'Tor 0.1.2.16'. Choosing new entry guards for you.\n

(That double restart of privoxy came because I first re-installed .16
by mistake, and second installed .17 correctly)

Looking in /tmp:

stbmac:/Library/Privoxy Michael$ ls -lt /tmp/

Nothing else. (I rebooted this morning, so /tmp is clean.)
