Comment (by arma):

 Code looks good! I haven't looked at the unit test part. I recommend
 putting it in an 0.3.0 for a while before we consider a backport to 0.2.9.
 (And I hope that we'll choose to not backport it, since clients use 3
 dirguards and we've survived this long with this bug in Tor.)
