> But another issue is that "auto" and "nolisten" don't make a lot of
sense together. "Auto" is "pick a port for me"; "nolisten" is "don't
actually listen on this address, I'll set it up in a firewall rule or
something".
No, the NoListen is just here so you can reproduce the bug. The bug exists
when you say :auto on your IPv6 ORPort -- the log tells you what port it
picked, and it listens on that port, and then it puts the wrong number in
your descriptor.
