Comment(by nickm):

 Replying to [comment:8 gsathya]:
 > I've been running nickm/bug7959 for a couple of hours without any of
 those msgs. Is there a better test than to just let tor run for more time
 and wait for it to say something?

 Make sure it's running as a relay, and set UseNTorHandshake 1 ; that'll be
 good for something. In fact, I believe that when it tries to make a
 testing circuit to probe itself, it'll use the NTor handshake to do so --
 probably through a node that doesn't support ntor.  So if it decides that
 its ORPort is reachable, then this bug is fixed.

 (I've merged the code, since it's *a* correct thing to do, but I'm still
 hoping for more confirmation that it *does* fix this issue.)
