- If we are unable to save a microdescriptor to the journal, do not

+ - The new channel code sometimes lost track of in-progress circuits,

- Unit tests for failing cases of the TAP onion handshake.
- More unit tests for address-manipulation functions.
+ o Minor features (protecting client timestamps):
+ - Clients no longer send timestamps in their NETINFO cells. These were
+ not used for anything, and they provided one small way for clients
+ to be distinguished from each other as they moved from network to
+ network or behind NAT. Implements part of proposal 222.
+ - Clients now round timestamps in INTRODUCE cells down to the nearest
+ 10 minutes. If a new Support022HiddenServices option is set to 0, or
+ if it's set to "auto" and the feature is disabled in the consensus,
+ the timestamp is sent as 0 instead. Implements part of proposal 222.
+ - Stop sending timestamps in AUTHENTICATE cells. This is not such
+ a big deal from a security point of view, but it achieves no actual
+ good purpose, and isn't needed. Implements part of proposal 222.
+ - Reduce down accuracy of timestamps in hidden service descriptors.

o Minor features (config options):
