Comment (by isis):

 I got hit by this bug super badly today, using `Tor version 0.2.5.10 (git-
 42b42605f8d8eac2)`; tor decided roughly every 30 seconds to 2 minutes that
 there weren't any "bridges" available.

 FWIW, I've experienced this bug for over a year now. The most reliable way
 that I know of to trigger it is to use normal relays as bridges, although
 it does occasionally occur with real bridge relays. I remember vaguely
 looking into it and thinking that somewhere a list of available relays and
 another list of available bridges existed simultaneously, and then
 basically that the bridge list was either deduplicated or checked for
 normal relays, causing some or all of the "bridges" to end up back in the
 real relay list, and thus causing Tor to think that there weren't any of
 the configured bridges available.
