Comment(by nickm):

 Oh hang on; I'd worry that stuff will crash if there are connections with
 address == NULL flying around the code.  Look for ->address in
 connection.c for example, and consider all the places we use it without
 checking for whether it's NULL.

 What if we took the first version of your patch, and added the control.c
 changes from the second version, but checked for
 !strcmp(..,"(Tor_internal)") instead of NULL?
