 While implementing tordate, I noticed that Tor clients send NETINFO cells
 to servers with their time.

 I believe that this is to spec but that both the implementation and the
 spec are wrong. A client should simply fill the time field out with zeros.
 We already send zero as the address as a client, we should also send zero
 as the time stamp.
