 Hey,

 I just noticed that 'tahoe put' (without any parameters, in an
 unconfigured state) might throw an IOError (No such file or directory:
 u'~/.tahoe/node.url').

 While this itself is a little unfriendly towards user, it is also causing
 the Ubuntu 'Crash report' application the show up. The 'crash report'
 appears to be a new features in Ubuntu 12.04. Apparently, it's sitting in
 the background looking for failures/exceptions and nags people who know
 what they do :P

 This may lead to bad statistics at Ubuntu about tahoe's stability. Also,
 it's pretty annoying. :)
