Comment:

 Circuit timeout is no longer counted from the launch event due to fixes
 from #3443. It is now counted from circuit_deliver_create_cell(), so as to
 avoid sometimes counting ORCONN setup time and sometimes not.

 My guess is that what *might* have happened was that there was an ORCONN
 connection that needed to be made to satisfy the first hop between these
 two events:

 2013-03-26 12:57:05+0000 CIRC 176 LAUNCHED
   BUILD_FLAGS=NEED_CAPACITY PURPOSE=GENERAL
   TIME_CREATED=2013-03-26T12:57:05.992579
 2013-03-26 12:58:44+0000 CIRC 176 EXTENDED
   $8BBE900C29D4B5D3FC727DB65140EA0A5EC94C19=kennkeintor
   BUILD_FLAGS=NEED_CAPACITY PURPOSE=GENERAL
   TIME_CREATED=2013-03-26T12:57:05.992579

 Unfortunately we don't currently have an event (other than also watching
 for ORCONN events) to verify this. Perhaps we should create a CIRC MINOR
 event here or something?
