The problem is related to + libevent's DNS handling, but we can work around it in Tor. Fixes + bugs 21394 and 18580; bugfix on 0.1.2.2-alpha which introduced + eventdns. Credit goes to Dhalgren for identifying and finding a + workaround to this bug and to gamambel, arthuredelstein and + arma in helping to track it down and analyze it. |
