o Minor bugfixes:
- If the Nickname configuration option wasn't given, Tor used to pick
a nickname based on the local hostname as the nickname for a relay.
Because nicknames are not very important in today's Tor and the
"Unnamed" nickname has been implemented, this is now problematic
behaviour: It leaks information about the hostname without being
useful at all. Bugfix on tor-0.1.2.2-alpha, which introduced the
Unnamed nickname. Fixes bug 2979, reported by tagnaq.
