Comment (by nickm):

 Here's an easier way to see the bug:

 1. Start tor, and let it bootstrap.
 2. Stop tor.
 3. In the DataDirectory, rename `cached-microdesc-consensus` to
 `unverified-microdesc-consensus`.
 4. Start tor again.

 Although Tor will use the unverified-microdesc-consensus file, it will not
 rename it to the proper name once it is verified.
