 I'm not sure I understand. Does chutney require that the bootstrap log
 messages distinguish between having exits and not having exits? Is there
 some place other than the bootstrap status messages where it makes sense
 to report this information?

 I think it might make sense to report this somewhere else. In practice,
 barring catastrophe, don't we expect the live Tor network to always have
 exits? Maybe the distinction is only important for test networks.
