Comment:

 Perhaps obfsproxy/scramblesuit should check the Tor version when being
 called, and if there were an easy way for PTs to specify a set of Tor
 version which are compatible, then it could alert the bridge operator if
 the version is incompatible.

 In the meantime, BridgeDB could have some temporary logic to not use
 scramblesuit transports which do not have passwords, since these are
 already deployed and there's not much we could do to fix them.
