--------------------+--------------------------------------
 After performing the following sequence of steps to download a consensus
 through a stream, Tor hangs after sending 58 (17 with deflate) cells:

 1. Open an TLS connection to a local OR.
 2. Negotiate a v5 link on the connection.
 3. Create a circuit via CREATE_FAST.
 4. Create a stream via RELAY_BEGIN_DIR.
 5. Send a request to download a consensus.

 I managed to reproduce the issue with the code attached. Here are an
 excerpt of the file:

 {{{
 '''Using identity, we get 58 RELAY_DATA cells before hanging, 17 with
 deflate.

     Affected:
         Tor version 0.3.4.0-alpha-dev (git-3463b4e0652bacca).

     Not affected:
         Tor version 0.3.3.5-rc-dev (git-3ee4c9b1fae9d535).
 '''

 compression = b'identity' # or b'deflate'
