+     *   Hoo boy.  We need to fix this one, and the fix is a bit tricky, so
+     * commenting this out is just a band-aid.
+     *
+     *   The problem is that, although well-behaved router descriptors
+     * should never have the same value for their extra_info_digest, it's
+     * possible for ill-behaved routers to claim whatever they like there.
+     *
+     *   The real answer is to trash desc_by_eid_map and instead have
+     * something that indicates for a given extra-info digest we want,
+     * what its download status is.  We'll do that as a part of routerlist
+     * refactoring once consensus directories are in.  For now,
+     * this rep violation is probably harmless: an adversary can make us
+     * reset our retry count for an extrainfo, but that's not the end
+     * of the world.
