Comment (by mr-4):

 Apologies, forgot to add two things: I also have quite extensive
 "ReachableAddresses reject xx.xx.xx.xx/yy, [...], *:443, *:9001,
 *:9090-9091" as well as "ExcludeNodes" statements.

 The former was introduced at the same time I added my "EntryNodes"
 statement as described above, the latter has been in my "default-torrc"
 file for ages.

 My "ReachableAddresses reject xx.xx.xx.xx/yy" and ExcludeNodes statements
 are auto-generated and contain subnets I have completely banned from my
 network (I have IP firewall rules doing the same), so tor did manage to
 bootstrap before I included these in torrc.

 The reason I put them in my torrc file is to simply let tor know what is
 banned from my net and what isn't, so that it doesn't waste time trying to
 connect to nodes/IP addresses which are banned by my firewall.
