----------------------------------+-----------------
 I have a small test network with 3 authorities, 5 Exits, 6 Fast relays, 3
 Guards, 13 Running relays. Starting a bwauth leads to this and the last
 two log messages are repeated infintely, quickly filling my disk.

 The network has nodes all living inside 10.0.0.0/8 address space but it's
 a real Tor network deployed over several machines.

 The following options are set:
 ExtendAllowPrivateAddresses 1
 EnforceDistinctSubnets 0
 ClientRejectInternalAddresses 0
 ClientDNSRejectInternalAddresses 0
