Comment (by arma):
For a related ticket, check out #7875: the issue there is that if you want
to listen on a low-numbered port (<1024), e.g. by doing port forwarding in
iptables, there's no way to tell your Tor bridge to advertise that low-
numbered port in your extrainfo descriptor. So you can listen there, but
clients won't know to connect there.
