Hi,
I have a patch to fix the "Failed to parse/validate config: Failed to 
init Log options" problem whenever I start Tor on FreeBSD. It is:

I'm in a hurry to post this because I'm a high school student and I 
don't want my mom to be too angry with me, but I did test this and it 
worked. And my Postfix server couldn't send this email the first time (I 
actually run my own email server, and from home!). But anyways, hope you 
enjoy it.
