Changes in version 0.2.8.3-?? - 2016-05-??
xxx blurb goes here xxx
o Major bugfixes (security, directory authorities):
- Fix a crash and out-of-bounds write during authority voting, when
the list of relays includes duplicate ed25519 identity keys. Fixes
bug 19032; bugfix on 0.2.8.2-alpha.
o Major bugfixes (compilation):
- Correctly detect compiler flags on systems where _FORTIFY_SOURCE
is predefined. Previously, our use of -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE would
cause a compiler warning, thereby making other checks fail.
Fixes one case of bug 18841; bugfix on 0.2.3.17-beta. Patch from
"trudokal".

from "trudokal".
o Major bugfixes (crypto, portability):
- The SHA3 and SHAKE routines now produce the correct output on
Big Endian systems, unbreaking the unit tests. No code calls
either algorithm family yet, so this is primarily a build fix.

o Major bugfixes (directory mirrors):
- Decide whether to advertise begindir support the same way we decide
whether to advertise our DirPort. These decisions being out of sync
led to surprising behavior like advertising begindir support when
our hibernation config options made us not advertise a DirPort.
Resolves bug 18616; bugfix on 0.2.8.1-alpha. Patch by teor.
