 toralf can reproduce the issue even after the patch is applied to their
 Tor instance.

 tell, whether it is fixed.

 Awesome! Please let us know how it goes.

 > FWIW I do argue that the issue started here immediately when I switched
 from vanilla kernel 4.11.5 to 4.11.7 (I skipped 4.11.6, that had no
 impressive fixes IMO). Given that, could the issue be uncovered by the
 stack-gap-CVE-thingy ?

 I don't think so; I can't imagine how.  I believe the reason this started
 appearing was probably just 9328bd524e38befe240fd729a9febb4dfe8b5be4 from
 last tuesday.
