 Hi Dhalgren,

 We try to make backported fixes small and obviously correct.
 Is there a critical issue that stops this patch working on most machines?
 If so, please continue on this ticket.

 If not, please open another ticket targeting 0.3.3 for further
 improvements.

 > I am willing to work on it if the devs are willing to bring any issues
 the have to me rather than hacking on my patch as past experience tends to
 indicate.

 I'm sorry, I'm not sure how we failed here, but it's clear that we made
 some mistakes.

 Here's how our process usually works:
 We discuss patches on the bug tracker and #tor-dev.
 For backported emergency fixes, whoever is available does the work, and we
 try to get it done as soon as possible.
 Sometimes this means that things get forgotten or people get left out. I'm
 sorry about that.

 If you want to tune the parameters, please open another ticket, and we
 will have more time to consider it.
