Comment (by dcole):

 Hrmm, I am not sure if that is the right question to ask. Isn't it really
 just a problem that it's not using the OR port when there are certain
 accept policy rules set? I was trying to learn enough about libevent to
 backtrace this problem to compare exactly what happens when there are
 these two scenarios in the torrc:

 ExitPolicy accept *:1194,reject *:*
 #ExitPolicy reject *:*

 If you swap the comments back and forth while doing a tcpdump you will see
 the difference I am talking about. The public key and such all gets dumped
 in plaintext in the configuration listed, and if you swap the comment to
 the other line, it all becomes encrypted.
