 > After some confusion was resolved in #tor-dev, I made some new packages
 with --enable-bufferevents for 0.2.3.0-alpha-dev. They are here:

 > http://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/technology-preview
 /vidalia-bundle-0.2.3.0-alpha-dev-bufferevents-0.2.10.exe
 > http://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/technology-preview
 /vidalia-bundle-0.2.3.0-alpha-dev-bufferevents-0.2.10.exe.asc

 * I started this Tor as a client, and it succeeded in building a circuit.
 * I then configured it as an unpublished bridge using Vidalia, and its
 reachability test succeeded.  A while later, I tried to browse the web
 through it, and ''I think'' it didn't work.  (I may be wrong about the 'it
 didn't work' part; I wasn't trying to figure out or remember what was
 going on.)
 * I stopped Tor using Vidalia, and Tor crashed.
 * I started Tor again, and it was unable to bootstrap.
 * I configured it as a client only using Vidalia, and then stopped Tor.
 Tor crashed again.
 * I started Tor again, and it succeeded in building a circuit.
