Comment (by Alan):

 I have seen not it again.  If I can't reproduce it reliably, I can't give
 you any more info.  I realize these are the most difficult bugs to fix--
 bugs that pop up very intermittently.  They can also be the most
 frustrating for the user.

 Regarding your theory, that doesn't explain (for me any way), why every
 connect attempt failed for over 5 minutes, until I finally stopped tor and
 restarted it, and then the problem went away.
