Comment(by rransom):

 From `router_differences_are_cosmetic` in `src/or/routerlist.c`:
 {{{
       crypto_pk_cmp_keys(r1->onion_pkey, r2->onion_pkey) ||
       crypto_pk_cmp_keys(r1->identity_pkey, r2->identity_pkey) ||
 }}}

 Someday, this will need a comparison function which handles NULL keys
 properly (i.e. as equal to each other, and distinct from non-NULL keys).
 This call site can use an (in)equality comparison rather than an order
 comparison.
