Comment (by arma):

 I don't think the current behavior is too bad. Seeing the first descriptor
 starts the directory authorities doing their reachability tests. And
 usually the relay publishes a second descriptor pretty soon after. And
 since directory authorities use the most recent one in their vote, they'll
 probably vote about the right one for the consensus.

 So I guess the question is, how did your bwauth ever get the descriptor
 with bw 0 in it, if my above theory is right that typically those
 descriptors get replaced before the vote?
