Comment:
alecmuffett does something similar to this in his hidden service setup, by
making the *remote* side (web server) listen on a custom local subnet
address, and then having Tor connect to that address. This workaround
should not need any changes to Tor, or any iptables rules:
https://github.com/alecmuffett/the-onion-diaries/blob/master/basic-
production-onion-server.md
This patch needs revision, because we added OutboundBindAddressExit and OR
since it was created.
If you'd like, we can take a look at this in 0.3.4 (the code freeze for
0.3.3 is only a few weeks away).
I can't see any need for a unit test, I'm not sure we have any for the
other OutboundBindAddress options.
If we do, it should be a parse test, not a bind test.
