Starting tor at boot, creates /.tor Directory

Version is 0.0.9.8 (that doesn't appear on the Reported Version drop-down).

Linux fubar 2.4.29 legacy/trac#21 (closed) Thu Jan 20 17:11:39 PST 2005 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux

I've established a user tor and group tor (and user privoxy and group privoxy) and am starting both in /etc/rc.d. tor is starting as a daemon, with "tor" specified in /usr/local/etc/tor/torrc for both user and group as is RunAsDaemon.

The problem is that starting like this wants /.tor -- I've created it, owned by tor, mode 700, but I wonder at the wisdom of doing so, and I can't find any setting that will prevent this. Is this a (potential) problem or am I just being too picky?
