Comment:

 The choose_random_entry API seems a bit wrong here -- we have separate
 notions of "entry" and "dirguard", and we should really never be calling
 "choose_random_entry" when what we're going to ask for is directory
 information.  The only thing to make sure of then that
 choose_random_dirguard() will return a bridge when bridges are configured.

 Let me see if this makes sense to fix...
