Comment (by starlight):

 Hate to spoil parties, but that trailing dot
 appears to still be a problem.  Running 0.2.6.10 with

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/commit/?id=3f336966a264d7cd7c6dab08fb85d85273f06d68

 applied and just got

 As observed earlier in this ticket, a trailing
 dot is appears to be the DNS-request form
 visible when working with the `dig` utility.

 I have no opinion regarding what is correct,
 just reporting what I see.  Therefore I'm
 leaving the ticket closed and will let others
 decide.
