Comment (by arma):

 Really? Shouldn't we have a dir connection on our side, which is going to
 be linked to a socks connection, which it what induces the OR connection?
 So all we need to do is check if there's a dir connection?

 See in directory_initiate_command_rend() where we do
 {{{
     linked_conn =
       connection_ap_make_link(...)
 }}}
