Update of /home/or/cvsroot/tor/src/or
In directory moria:/tmp/cvs-serv31006/src/or

Modified Files:
	dirserv.c or.h routerlist.c 
Log Message:
Be more aggressive about throwing away expired router descriptors: they are of no use to anybody.  Better still: dont serve expired descriptors by fingerprint.  The only people who ask for them are busted 0.1.1.10 Tors that will throw them away and re-request them after 30 minutes.
