Comment (by nickm):

 `feature12538_rebased_7` in my public repository is rebased on master,
 with the NotDir/BelieveNotDir stuff removed, and the bugs mentioned above
 fixed.

 My only remaining issue is:
 > * I worry about the definition of dir_server_mode(). Possibly, if we
 have advertised that we're a dirserver, we should actually be a dirserver?

 Also we should test this on chutney to verify that everything works
 correctly for servers without DirPort support.
