Comment (by asn):

 I did the following chutney testing on the branch above:

 a) I hacked a Tor relay to send a `RESOURCELIMIT` `DESTROY` cell upon
 receiving a `CREATE` cell and made sure that the client would switch
 guards upon seeing the `DESTROY`. Worked.
 b) I hacked a Tor relay to send `RESOURCELIMIT` `DESTROY` cell upon
 receiving a `RELAY` cell (which AFAIK should be after the guard hop has
 been established) and made sure that the client would tear down the
 circuit but '''would not''' mark the guard as unreachable. Worked.

 What other kind of testing would you like to see here?
