Here's my experience:
- I've installed the tor package (v0.2.0.33 Rev 2 uClibc 0.9.28)
- Using a windows-based config/monitoring client called Vidalia I can
connect to the tor daemon but get a warning that the version of tor I'm
using is outdated. The LEAF package version is v0.2.0.33 - 18 mos out of
date of the month-old 0.2.1.26-stable release.
- Given the nature of what tor does could I put in a prod for any possible
update to the tor engine?

The tor daemon on my LEAF router logs this:
==========
Tor[16739]: Please upgrade! This version of Tor (0.2.0.33) is obsolete,
according to the directory authorities. Recommended versions are:
0.2.0.35,
0.2.1.23,
0.2.1.24,
0.2.1.25,
0.2.1.26,
0.2.2.7-alpha,
0.2.2.8-alpha,
0.2.2.9-alpha,
0.2.2.10-alpha,
0.2.2.11-alpha,
0.2.2.12-alpha,
0.2.2.13-alpha,
0.2.2.14-alpha
==========
which in part says that even going from the 0.2.0.33 to the 0.2.0.35 will be
good, if that's an easier compile.

The current 0.2.1.26-stable src is linked on this page:
https://www.torproject.org/download-unix.html.en

They seem to no longer make (easily, at least) available older source so
I've sent an email to see about that.

Might anyone have an interest in re-compiling an update for the tor package?
