- o Crash fixes:
- - If a directory server runs out of space in the connection table
- as it's processing a begin_dir request, it will free the exit stream
- but leave it attached to the circuit, leading to unpredictable
- behavior. (Reported by seeess, fixes bug 425.)
- - Fix a bug in dirserv_remove_invalid() that would cause authorities
- to corrupt memory under some really unlikely scenarios.

- o Major bugfixes:
- - If a directory authority is down, skip it when deciding where to get
- networkstatus objects or descriptors. Otherwise we keep asking
- every 10 seconds forever. Fixes bug 384.
- - Count it as a failure if we fetch a valid network-status but we
- don't want to keep it. Otherwise we'll keep fetching it and keep

- - If all of our dirservers have given us bad or no networkstatuses
- lately, then stop hammering them once per minute even when we
- think they're failed. Fixes another part of bug 422.
- - Back off correctly when downloading servers. (Previously, we would
- never actually increment the failure count for descriptors we were in
- the process of retrieving.)
