 Is this extra patch any different from #24898?
 Because if it's not, we should rebase this branch on the 0.2.9 backport.
 For details, see
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/24898#comment:10
 Otherwise we won't be testing what we actually plan on deploying.

 > nickm set this one to a review-group. Shouldn't we be looking at an
 033-oriented branch though, since that's what we'll merge first? Or is the
 plan to merge the whole thing straight into 029 and then forward, and then
 put out an 033 with it, and hope that we don't need a new 029 before we've
 tested it enough? :)

 We can merge it to 0.3.3 soon, and then merge it to 0.2.9 later. Backport
 merges don't cause any conflicts as long as the commits are the same.
