Comment (by ra):

 Replying to [comment:4 nickm]:
 > I had to tweak it a little to make it merge into master.  How do you
 like branch "bug9934_nm" in my public repository (
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/nickm/tor.git ) ?

 The smartlist solution seems cleaner than the string length comparison. I
 tried but couldn't figure how to do it in a short time. Anyways, the
 branch looks perfectly fine to me.

 > I also renamed the command to DROPGUARDS, since "dump" in programmerese
 can mean either "discard" or "print".

 Ack.

 > Please let me know if you like this version of the patch, and whether I
 should credit the patch to "ra" or to some longer name.

 "ra" is fine.
