Looks good except for a few things:

  * It needs a "changes" file; see doc/HACKING for the format there.
  * The documentation for the function doesn't say that it accepts the
new syntax, and doesn't say that it removes the leading material from
the hostname.
  * It considers .aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.onion to be a valid hostname; is that wrong?
  * The tests should probably make sure that it modifies the hostname
as expected

  * Somebody should run this to make sure that it works. :)

BTW, it's usually a good idea to put patches on the bugtracker at
trac.torproject.org: that way it is way harder for me to forget about
them, drop them on the floor, or anything like that.
