Comment (by cypherpunks):

 > And this bug can't to block usage of guards (client still able to use
 create_fast without onion key).
 It seems was wrong statement. choose_good_middle_server() doesn't count
 nodes without md and choose_random_entry_impl() can't to choose node
 without descriptor for guard purpose. Doubly blocked.

 OK.
