 In https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/14881#comment:58 ,
 pastly reports that in networks without bandwidth weights, tor says:
 > Oct 26 19:56:00.000 [warn] Failed to find node for hop 1 of our path.
 Discarding this circuit.

 We should fix this at some point by falling back to choosing a random
 node.
