Comment (by teor):

 But we're not testing the address that the ORPort or DirPort are listening
 on!

 There's a minimal fix that changes the order of address usage from:
 * Address config option
 * auto-discovered address via various methods

 To:
 * ORPort/DirPort address (if present)
 * Address config option
 * auto-discovered address via various methods

 Bonus points for logging how we got the address, and what to do to change
 it.
