 Replying to [ticket:6866 fob]:

 > Sep 16 22:35:52.000 [err] pathbias_count_first_hop(): Bug:
 circuitbuild.c:2650: pathbias_count_first_hop: Assertion
 circ->build_state->desired_path_len == 1 failed; aborting.

 From `pathbias_count_first_hop` in `src/or/circuitbuild.c`:
 {{{
   /* Completely ignore one hop circuits */
   if (circ->build_state->onehop_tunnel) {
     tor_assert(circ->build_state->desired_path_len == 1);
     return 0;
   }
 }}}

 I see no reason for a piece of code which claims to only attempt to detect
 path-bias attacks to contain this assertion.  Someone will have to review
 that code to check for other inappropriate assertions as well before
 0.2.3.x becomes âstableâ.

 That's #6304.
