Comment(by sysrqb):

 This patch is based on the assumption that short "blips" (less than 3
 minutes) won't invalidate the client's lease and result in it receiving a
 new IP address. If this is wrong, then I'll remove the grace-period check
 or shorten it if a shorter time is more appropriate.

 Basically, once we successfully build a circuit after timing out for a
 certain amount of time, we set a flag that is checked in
 run_scheduled_events when we check if the descriptor should be
 regenerated.

 Thoughts?

 Patch below and branch bug2454 on git://gitweb.evolvesoftware.cc/tor.git
