Comment (by teor):

 This might be related to commit a21381a in 0.2.0.3-alpha, where we
 disabled the desc_by_eid_map check in routerlist_assert_ok(). If we fix
 this bug, we should re-enable it with a non-fatal assert.

      *
      *   Hoo boy.  We need to fix this one, and the fix is a bit tricky,
 so
      * commenting this out is just a band-aid.
      *
      *   The problem is that, although well-behaved router descriptors
      * should never have the same value for their extra_info_digest, it's
      * possible for ill-behaved routers to claim whatever they like there.
      *
      *   The real answer is to trash desc_by_eid_map and instead have
      * something that indicates for a given extra-info digest we want,
      * what its download status is.  We'll do that as a part of routerlist
      * refactoring once consensus directories are in.  For now,
      * this rep violation is probably harmless: an adversary can make us
      * reset our retry count for an extrainfo, but that's not the end
      * of the world.  Changing the representation in 0.2.0.x would just
      * destabilize the codebase.
     if (!tor_digest_is_zero(r->cache_info.extra_info_digest)) {
       signed_descriptor_t *sd3 =
         sdmap_get(rl->desc_by_eid_map, r->cache_info.extra_info_digest);
       tor_assert(sd3 == &(r->cache_info));
     }
     */
 }}}
