Comment (by asn):

 Note: Based on a few logs I've been looking at (also including
 `info.log.tgz` from this ticket), this `We're missing descriptors for some
 of our primary entry guards` event seems to start occuring after the
 download of a new consensus:
 {{{
 Oct 10 03:23:07.000 [info] handle_response_fetch_consensus(): Received
 consensus directory (body size 2009950) from server '178.62.60.37:443'
 Oct 10 03:23:08.000 [info] A consensus needs 5 good signatures from
 recognized authorities for us to accept it. This one has 8 (dannenberg

 date enough to build circuits: We're missing descriptors for some of our
 primary entry guards
 Oct 10 03:23:09.000 [notice] I learned some more directory information,
 but not enough to build a circuit: We're missing descriptors for some of
 our primary entry guards
