Comment:

 This is probably a mismatch between #12538 and #18625.

 What I think is happening is this:
 * as an 0.2.8 tor, we choose directory mirrors that only have ORPorts,
 because they have the V2Dir flag and tunneled-dir-connection in their
 descriptors (#12538),
 * but as a relay, we prefer not to use begindir (#18625).

 I think this issue only surfaced when the authorities upgraded to 0.2.8
 and started assigning the V2Dir flag to ORPort-only relays.

 Please see my branch bug20711 on github, which fixes the issue and
 clarifies the log message.
