Since the last version and continuing with the current version of Linux TBB 
32bit, there is an
extra line added to torrc on TBB reload, by Vidalia, with steps to reproduce:

* Directory:
~/tor-browser_en-US/Data/Tor

* Extra Line of Data Added:
ControlPortWriteToFile /home/madeinchina/tor-browser_en-US/Data/Tor/port.conf

* Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch TBB with 'start-tor-browser' script, wait until browser appears
2. After any amount of time, add a few bridges in Vidalia
3. Allow the new bridges to 'take', several seconds
4. Stop Tor and exit, which will close Tor, Vidalia, and browser
5. Restart TBB with script, check the 'torrc' file for changes,
   you'll notice the extra line above added by Vidalia.

I also see 'ControlPort auto' listed, but I'm unclear as to when this was 
added. I did notice the
'ControlPortWriteToFile' entry as something new with the previous version of 
TBB 2.2.37-1.
Currently I'm using 2.2.37-2.

Is this a bug?
Why did it appear just recently?
Why does Vidalia add the line, with bridges used, on a restart? I haven't 
tested it without
bridges and a simple stop/exit/restart.
