Comment:

 I have a possible fix in a branch called `bug29670_035` with a PR in
 https://github.com/torproject/tor/pull/1056

 I have run a couple of experiments with it, but I do not have the right
 kind of local socks proxy to try this out.  If somebody else could see
 whether it fixes the bug, that would help greatly.
