Comment:

 Turns out that this is a really hard thing to do extensibly - when is a
 client "ready"?
 So I did the next best thing:
 * wait for 5 seconds for the first consensus
 * wait for another 10 seconds for the first consensus with relays in it
 * just keep retrying verify until it works, or it's taken longer than a
 minute

 This was my feature16950 branch, it's been merged to master.
