Since 0.2.0.1-alpha, + our cell queue logic has saved us from the failure mode that + this code was supposed to prevent. Removing this code will limit + the number of baroque control flow paths through Tor's network + logic. Reported pseudonymously on IRC. Fix for bug 6468; + bigfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.
