fix is not to start weighting bridges differently. It's to make Tor notice
when a bridge has broken.
I just tried to reproduce (ran bridge on moria:9009 with bandwidth 50KB,
and bridge2 on moria:9010 with bandwidth hard-coded in the descriptor to
0). Run with tor client with
{{{
UseBridges 1
bridge 128.31.0.34:9009
bridge 128.31.0.34:9010
}}}
Started it, it used 9009 exclusively (since it has bandwidth). Then I
killed the first bridge, and it smoothly moved over to making circuits
with bridge2.
Sebastian, can you still reproduce this bug?
