I still don't understand why would anyone trust Tor developers to
correctly configure Privoxy.
E.g., on https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorFAQ#WhydoweneedPolipoorPrivoxywithTorWhichisbetter:
"it needs to see the entire page to parse it, before sending it on to
the browser".

This incorrect remark can mean only one thing: whoever wrote that
sentence didn't read the manual. For a decent configuration, see
src/etc/privoxy in Liberté's git, which includes Referer/Host header
rewriting for .exit notation support, for instance.
