[tor-dev] Troubleshooting Tor 0.2.7.1+ ephemeral hidden services

I'm trying to add support for ephemeral hidden services to OnionShare.
They'll solve a wide variety of problems related to OnionShare using a
system Tor instead of Tor browser, and running in environments like
Tails or Whonix. I'd rather never write the hidden service info to disk
anyway.

I noticed that Tor Browser 5.5a2 comes with Tor 0.2.7.2-alpha, so it's
easy to test. But so far I'm not having any success, at least with using
stem.

Before I open a bug report, either against stem or against tor, am I
doing this right? I've made a simple test project:

https://github.com/micahflee/ephemeral-hs-test

It successfully appears to create the hidden service, but it never
succeeds in connecting to itself. I also can't connect to it using Tor
Browser.
