 Replying to [comment:43 mikeperry]:
 > I'll add in this relaxed_timeout check somewhere in circuituse.c before
 this needs to be reviewed again.

 Ok, this is done. In mikeperry/bug3443, I added a check to
 circuit_is_better() to prefer circuits without relaxed_timeout set. I
 assume that's the only place such a check is needed?

 I also pushed a commit to ensure we actually count such "relaxed" timeouts
 as CBT timeouts, so that CBT will reset the timeout value to an unlearned
 state if we end up having to relax and/or timeout a ton of circuits in a
 row.
