Comment (by nickm):

 As it stands, a hotfix seems like the best option to me.  So long as Stem
 still depends on any of Tor's log message formats, it is depending on an
 explicitly not-guaranteed behavior, and users IMO ought to expect that
 sometimes they need to upgrade to the latest Stem if they want support for
 the latest Tor.

 But let's talk more here; I'd like a better sense of what we actually get
 from this change.
