 Priority:  normal     |      Milestone:  Tor: 0.2.2.x-final

 In connection_or_send_netinfo() we write
 {{{
   /* Their address. */
   out = cell.payload + 4;
   len = append_address_to_payload(out, &conn->_base.addr);
 }}}

 But the goal here is to say the actual address the conn came from/to, yes?
 If so, shouldn't it be conn->real_addr?

 Reported by "troll_un".

 Targeting this one on 0.2.2 since when we eventually start using the
 contents of netinfo cells, we'll wish everybody had the fix.
