Comment (by nickm):

 The patch in the parent ticket kills off the is_first_hop flag.

 I have looked over all the uses of node_get_by_id() to make sure we aren't
 using it for client-testing without an appropriate wrapper
 [connection_or_digest_is_known_relay].  I also looked at the routerstatus-
 lookup functions.

 There is a problem with the router_get_by_id_digest() function -- it is
 used too much, when some other test would be more correct.
