 In the past, I could do

 {{{
 src/or/tor entrynodes moria1
 }}}

 and voila, I would begin using my Tor with moria1 as my entry node.

 In the new world order, post prop#271 I assume, I instead get this
 complaint:
 {{{
 May 08 20:27:42.394 [warn] Your configuration excludes 100% of all
 possible guards. That's likely to make you stand out from the rest of the
 world.
 May 08 20:27:42.394 [notice] Starting with guard context "restricted"
 May 08 20:27:42.405 [notice] Bootstrapped 80%: Connecting to the Tor
 network
 May 08 20:27:43.425 [warn] Failed to find node for hop 0 of our path.
 Discarding this circuit.
 }}}
 and then I never bootstrap.

 This is clearly a regression. Is it intentional, and I should go read
 guard-spec.txt for why, or is it accidental?
