Due to installing packages from conflicting sources, I ended up with a Tor installation where the tor daemon (with `User toranon`) could access the DataDirectory, but not open the files in it for lack of permissions. In this situation, tor exits quickly with only the following messages: ``` Nov 30 00:07:12.878 [notice] Tor v0.2.5.10 (git-42b42605f8d8eac2) running on Linux with Libevent 2.0.18-stable, OpenSSL 1.0.1e-fips and Zlib 1.2.7.

Except for exit status 1, there is no indication to the user that something has gone wrong, and what the problem could be. We should print a helpful error message. **Trac**: **Username**: sqrt2
