Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:13 gk]:
 > Do you see the same on your machines? It seems we are hitting a tor bug
 or is there something wrong with your patches (they looked reasonable to
 me after the first code-review pass).

 I see the same messages, although I do not remember seeing them before
 (maybe Kathy and I failed to notice them or maybe we tested with a
 different version or tor).  This could be a tor bug; the
 tor_addr_compare_masked() function does not seem to support Unix domain
 sockets (but I have not had time to debug it yet).
