Replying to [comment:8 aa138346]:
> Would there be a reason why an node would want to advertise a different
IP address than its actual one?
Plenty of relays do it. The main reason seems to be that they're behind
some sort of traffic filter, nat-style, that aggregates outgoing traffic
on their network.
> Would this be a good feature that the client could check for matching
advertised and actual IP address and exclude, something along the lines of
RefuseUnknownExits?
I opened #3145 so we don't lose track of the issue.
