Comment (by nickm):

 Here's how I suggest we proceed.  I suggest that we start a maint-0.2.7-v2
 branch, in the master Tor repository, starting from 0.2.7.6 as a point of
 divergence, and merging maint-0.2.6, but nothing from the old maint-0.2.7.
 Then I suggest that we go through the things above, seeing what (if
 anything) should be backported even earlier than 0.2.7.

 This makes sense *except* in the case where we believe that one of the
 things already backported to 0.2.6 or earlier is a mistake that we should
 reverse.  Is that the case?  If not, I'll go ahead and start there.
