Comment (by arma):

 Both circuits were created like this:
 {{{
 Jun 01 22:09:58.616 [info] update_consensus_networkstatus_downloads():
 Launching microdesc networkstatus consensus download.
 Jun 01 22:09:58.617 [debug] directory_initiate_command_rend(): anonymized
 0, use_begindir 1.
 Jun 01 22:09:58.617 [debug] directory_initiate_command_rend(): Initiating

 Jun 01 22:09:58.617 [debug] connection_add_impl(): new conn type Socks,

 Jun 01 22:09:58.617 [debug] onion_pick_cpath_exit(): Launching a one-hop
 circuit for dir tunnel.
 }}}
 and then they proceed to finish being built, and have the directory stream
 attached to them, and get a connected cell, and receive directory stuff,
 and then successfully got the whole thing:
 {{{
 Jun 01 22:10:00.383 [info] connection_dir_client_reached_eof():
 Successfully loaded consensus.
 }}}
