commit 4bb831e0873e7e4468a44dbf9e253bcd5df18421
Author: Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Improve fragile-hardening performance of consensus_split_lines.
    
    For whatever reason, in my testing, using memchr() here improves
    performance over strchr() by a great deal.
    
    Fixes bug 24826; bugfix on 0.3.1.1-alpha.
