------------------------------+-----------------
Once we resolve #20499, or more precisely, once we figure out which
versions it affects, we should teach the directory authorities to withhold
the Guard flag from relays that are running those versions.
Right now you can't bootstrap from e.g. sofia, which is a huge guard
running 0.2.9.3-alpha.
Then later -- or maybe this will turn out to be the easiest solution for
everything -- we can teach the directory authorities to simply reject
descriptors from relays running these buggy versions.
[I'm not sure which milestone to put this in, since it will need to get
into a majority of directory authorities for it to matter. :/ ]
