Comment (by mikeperry):

 Replying to [comment:9 asn]:
 > Mike, wrt the `test_circuitpadding_tokens()` test, could it be another
 case where the test actually schedules legit padding because of a state
 transition or something and it might trigger or might not depending on how
 the timing of the test goes?  Like the one from #29122?

 Yes, that does seem likely for the tokens test. In fact, I think this
 should fix it, if we could reproduce:
 https://github.com/mikeperry-
 tor/tor/commit/b61cd3709be53dd0aee55111dc0c29b882c31cc6

 However, I have no idea why the rtt test is failing. It almost seems like
 a compiler bug.
