Comment (by dgoulet):

 Hrm on second thought, connection_exit_begin_conn() specifies that it
 should return a negative reason if we want the caller to close the
 circuit. However, fun fact, END_CIRC_REASON_NONE == 0 and closing the
 circuit right in that function is actually against the "rule" ... Thus
 returning "END_CIRC_AT_ORIGIN" could be more appropriate since it's value
 is -1.

 IMO, this function should close the circuit itself on error or, for some
 reason, if we don't want that, set explicitely an err. reason in a
 variable and return -1 if we want the circuit to be closed. The NONE
 reason is 0 and also a valid reason to actually close a circuit. I don't
 see any palces where we send back a NONE and want to close the circuit but
 it's error prone in the long run...

 Thoughts?
