commit e4aaf7666028c30866ad63053ad9f6eb6bf16bf7
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm at torproject.org>

    When clearing cells from a circuit for OOM reasons, tell cmux we did so.
    
    Not telling the cmux would sometimes cause an assertion failure in
    relay.c when we tried to get an active circuit and found an "active"
    circuit with no cells.
    
    Additionally, replace that assert with a test and a log message.
    
    Fix for bug 20203. This is actually probably a bugfix on
    0.2.8.1-alpha, specifically my code in 8b4e5b7ee902fb7fa0776 where I
    made circuit_mark_for_close_() do less in order to simplify our call
    graph. Thanks to "cypherpunks" for help diagnosing.
