+ o Major bugfixes:
+ - Clients now send the correct address for their chosen rendezvous
+ point when trying to access a hidden service. They used to send
+ the wrong address, which would still work some of the time because
+ they also sent the identity digest of the rendezvous point, and if
+ the hidden service happened to try connecting to the rendezvous
+ point from a relay that already had a connection open to it,
+ the relay would reuse that connection. Now connections to hidden
+ services should be more robust and faster. Also, this bug meant
+ that clients were leaking to the hidden service whether they were
+ on a little-endian (common) or big-endian (rare) system, which for
+ some users might have reduced their anonymity. Fixes bug 13151;
+ bugfix on 0.2.1.5-alpha.
