We found two tor bugs today that make it much harder for tor clients
to discover that a hostname is IPv6-only (and therefore that they
need to connect to an IPv6 Exit).

Hopefully, when exits upgrade to a tor version with these patches,
clients will connect to one exit, be told the IPv6 address, and then
connect to an exit that supports IPv6.
