Comment:

 I added a warning in the tor(1) manpage :

 -    family; it doesn't need to list itself, but it won't hurt.)
 +    family; it doesn't need to list itself, but it won't hurt.) Do not
 list
 +    any bridge relay as it would compromise its concealment.

 the new patch (fix_torrc_myfamily_bridge-v2.patch) contains both changes.

 Are there other places in the source where it may be needed to be pointed
 out too ?


 The only thing left for this "issue" to be completely addressed would be
 to add a similar sentence in
 https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq#MultipleRelays
