 I was trying to track down an issue in stegotorus when I found that
 current Tor master has a problem bootstrapping.  I'm using this
 configuration

 {{{
 bridge XX:995
 bridge XX:443
 Bridge XX:5251

 CircuitBuildTimeout 60

 UseBridges 1
 }}}
 (With real bridges, of course.)

 After bisecting, it appears that d7089ff228227259137b5a8bc32d0764a0ad4155
 is at fault.  Oops -- that's one of mine. :p

 The failure mode here is that we get up to  50% bootstrapped, then:
 {{{
 Feb 28 16:58:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 20%: Asking for networkstatus
 consensus.
 Feb 28 16:58:46.000 [notice] Bootstrapped 50%: Loading relay descriptors.
 Feb 28 16:58:47.000 [notice] Learned fingerprint XXX for bridge XX:5251.
 Feb 28 16:58:47.000 [notice] Learned fingerprint XXX for bridge XX:443.
 }}}

 and then no further.

 Any insights for what I screwed up with
 d7089ff228227259137b5a8bc32d0764a0ad4155 ?
