- If we are unable to save a microdescriptor to the journal, do not
drop it from memory and then reattempt downloading it. Fixes bug
9645; bugfix on 0.2.2.6-alpha.
- The new channel code sometimes lost track of in-progress circuits,
causing long-running clients to stop building new circuits. The
fix is to always call circuit_n_chan_done(chan, 0) from
channel_closed(). Fixes bug 9776; bugfix on 0.2.4.17-rc.

- Unit tests for failing cases of the TAP onion handshake.
- More unit tests for address-manipulation functions.
o Minor features (protecting client timestamps):
- Clients no longer send timestamps in their NETINFO cells. These were
not used for anything, and they provided one small way for clients
to be distinguished from each other as they moved from network to
network or behind NAT. Implements part of proposal 222.
- Clients now round timestamps in INTRODUCE cells down to the nearest
10 minutes. If a new Support022HiddenServices option is set to 0, or
if it's set to "auto" and the feature is disabled in the consensus,
the timestamp is sent as 0 instead. Implements part of proposal 222.
- Stop sending timestamps in AUTHENTICATE cells. This is not such
a big deal from a security point of view, but it achieves no actual
good purpose, and isn't needed. Implements part of proposal 222.
- Reduce down accuracy of timestamps in hidden service descriptors.
Implements part of proposal 222.
o Minor features (config options):
- Config (torrc) lines now handle fingerprints which are missing
their initial '$'. Resolves ticket 4341; improvement over 0.0.9pre5.

make it go faster on register-starved hosts. This improves our
handshake performance by about 6% on i386 hosts without nacl.
Closes ticket 8109.
- Update to the September 4 2013 Maxmind GeoLite Country database.
o Minor bugfixes:
- Set the listen() backlog limit to the largest actually supported
