Comment (by neel):
I am interested in this bug.
About this line in this bug report's message:
>Ignoring localhost (tor_addr_is_localhost) and link-local addresses (a
new tor_addr_is_link_local)
I know that the Tor codebase has diverged significantly since the time the
report was posted. But with today's codebase, I know we have this
function: `tor_addr_is_internal_()` and `tor_addr_is_internal()`.
Would it be okay for me to create a function like `tor_addr_is_local()`
which checks if the address given is either (a) localhost or (b) local
link?
Also, when we scan the addresses, is it okay for me to skip the proposed
`tor_addr_is_local()` if `ClientRejectInternalAddresses` is 0 (such as a
testing network or chutney)?
