Comment (by atagar):

 Bit more context: the StaleDesc flag was added in ticket #26770. Here's
 its changelog entry...

 {{{
 % cat changes/ticket26770
   o Minor features (directory authority, relay):
     - Authorities now vote on a "StaleDesc" flag to indicate that a
 relay's
       descriptor is so old that the relay should upload again soon.
 Relays
       understand this flag, and treat it as a signal to upload a new
       descriptor.  This flag will eventually let us remove the 'published'
       date from routerstatus entries, and save a great deal of space in
 our
       consensus diffs. Closes ticket 26770; implements proposal 293.
