Comment (by arlolra):

 > The Bywadu relay inspiring this ticket continued to exhibit the unlisted
 exit IP for something like two weeks after the scanner was restarted.
 Subsequently it was flagged as BadExit and then disappeared. My guess from
 the BadExit marking is that this relay was gaming the exit scanner
 (reasons for the BadExit flag are not published).

 It got BadExit'd with #17303. The redirection described there may in fact
 be the real reason why TorDNSEL was never able to resolve the correct IP
 for that node.
