Comment (by aagbsn):
It looks like the TIME_CREATED field is unexpected by pyTorCtl.
torspec.git commit 2f040bc03e61d1eef482e6e170ba9de1a3fd434a adds new
fields
The _decode1 function in pytorctl/TorCtl.py isn't very flexible and
doesn't comply with the control spec:
" Clients SHOULD NOT depend on the order of keyword=value arguments,
and SHOULD NOT depend on there being no new keyword=value arguments
appearing between existing keyword=value arguments, though as of this
writing (Jun 2011) some do.
"
So, I guess we've known about this for some time :\
