 boboper found a couple of assertion failures in dirauth vote parsing
 functions:

 {{{
 < boboper> "0 < weight_scale" what a silly style?
 < boboper> lol "weight_scale < INT32_MAX" it's natural bugdoor.
 < boboper> as well as zero compare
 < boboper> good to know you filled your ignore list. I can slowly  develop
 mine exploits. I found that irc helps me to do it better.
 < boboper> "tor_parse_long(eq+1, 10, INT32_MIN, INT32_MAX, &ok, NULL)"
 "tor_assert(ok)" one mad auth can destroy all network. I wanna be auth.
 < boboper> or_parse_long(eq+1, 10, INT32_MIN, INT32_MAX, &ok, NULL); can't
 detect overflow and underflow for 32bit. LONG_MIN == INT32_MIN
 < boboper> "tor_assert(i<n_votes)" you re so funny devs
 }}}
