> The one case where it's really important that addresses match is that we
shouldn't connect to a bridge at any address other than the one we
configured for it in the bridge line in our torrc. If we've got that
property, I think we're okay.
A client will not connect to an IPv6 address not found in a Bridge
line since that address won't evern show up in a bridge_info_t and
rewrite_node_address_for_bridge() is the only place where
ri->ipv6_preferred is set.
A client will _hopefully_ not connect to an IPv6 address not found in
a Bridge line but the closest to a proof that I can present for this
is that I've tested quite a lot with clients using only an IPv6
address to bridges not binding to an IPv4 address.
That's the best I've got right now.
