 * milestone:  Tor: 0.3.3.x-final => Tor: 0.3.2.x-final

Comment:

 I think this is a good idea, and I'd be happy to include it in 0.3.2 if
 it's rebased on top of my bug23493.

 At the very least, we need to make sure we won't crash if IPv4 is left
 out, and we should just discard the particular link specifier and try
 again.
