Comment (by rransom):

 Replying to [comment:4 arma]:
 > skruffy describes a plausible explanation for why these client-side
 warns are happening: the client is using an old ntor onion key, and in the
 new ntor design, there's no way for the relay to know what onion key the
 create request is intended for. So the relay answers anyway, and the
 client is shocked to find that it can't complete the handshake.

 What is
