Before this, we would only close it - on error and thus leaking memory for each normal OR connections. - Fixes bug 40604; bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha. - - Stop sending TRUNCATED cell and instead close the circuits which - sends a DESTROY cell so every relay in the circuit path can stop - queuing cells.
