Get this at my exit relay since yesterday:

even with log level "debug" there seems to be no more information.
You should see an info-level message that starts:
"Unable to parse descriptor of type"
Can you send any messages like this to the list?
If those messages contain a filename, can you please send us a pastebin link to the contents of that file?
(If the messages just contain a hash, look for a file with a name that contains that hash in unparseable-descs in your data directory.)
I opened a ticket for this bug: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/28223
