Comment:

 Thanks for the additional information!  It does seem like what's going on
 is although we deferred reporting (cached) directory progress in 0.3.5,
 the first successful TCP connection to the local obfs4 proxy caused the
 directory progress reporting to proceed, even though a connection to the
 bridge through obfs4 might not be possible.

 Going to leave this open for a few days and then close it if no
 substantially different information comes in about this scenario.
