Comment (by dcf):

 Nice work, Yawning and qbi.

 I wondered why this error was never reported about pyobfsproxy; it's
 because pyobfsproxy does like Yawning suggests and re-reads the cookie
 file on every new server connection.
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/pluggable-
 transports/obfsproxy.git/tree/obfsproxy/network/extended_orport.py?id=obfsproxy-0.2.13#n241

 I'm fine with moving readAuthCookieFile from ServerSetup to DialOr or
 extOrPortAuthenticate in goptlib.
