Comment (by asn):

 I suspect these two things might be different bugs. Here are some
 partially anonymized debug logs for the bug that crashes on
 `self.circuit.downstream.write()`:

 }}}

 So I think what's happening here is the following: The client disconnects
 and the connection is lost. The circuit gets destroyed
 (`self.transport.circuit` is set to `None`), and the ExtendedORPort
 connection also gets closed.
 However, there were still some data on our ExtendedORport buffer that get
 flushed (apparently `transport.loseConnection()` does not work as I
 expected), so that reaches `extended_orport.py:dataReceived()`, and then
 it goes to `self.circuit.dataReceived(self.buffer, self)`. `self.circuit`
 still exists because nothing cleared it, however the circuit attached to
 the transport is set to `None`, so when we reach the transport-specific
 `receivedUpstream()` that tries to write to `self.circuit.downstream` it
 crashes.

 Guarding the `dataReceived` functions with a `if self.closed:` check seems
 to solve the problem in my bridge. However, the first crash still happens.
