Comment (by yawning):

 An adversary would need to both be able to inject (easy) and receive
 (hard) packets with fake IP addresses, since all the bridge distribution
 mechanisms are TCP based.

 I still think this is unneeded, since there are far easier ways to mass-
 enumerate bridges that this does not defeat.
