Several attempts to diagnose ticket 25686
There are a few reasons that relays might be uploading desciptors without saying X-Desc-Gen-Reason: 1. They are running an old version of our software, before 0.3.2.stable. 2. They are not running our software, but they are claiming they are. 3. They are uploading through a proxy that strips X-Desc-Gen-Reason. 4. They somehow had a bug in their software. According to the 25686 data, 1 is the most common reason. This ticket is an attempt to diagnose case 4, or prove that case 4 doesn't actually happen.
