Comment(by arma):

 It's worth noting that bridge relays short-circuit in
 directory_fetches_from_authorities() so they don't call
 router_pick_published_address(). So they only notice IP changes after 15
 minutes (or after a directory fetch, if sooner). That results in bug
 reports like #1913, that we could resolve by cranking down
 CHECK_IPADDRESS_INTERVAL. (I'm going to close that bug and point it to
 this one.)
