Comment (by nickm):

 Dormant mode only exists in 0.4.0.x later; if you're seeing a change in
 recent releases, then it's not dormant mode that you're seeing.  Also,
 dormant mode isn't supposed to make Tor close its circuits, so that's
 another reason this isn't likely to be dormant mode.

 What's the first version where you have seen this problem?  And are the
 steps to reproduce it just "wait 60 minutes and use a control port to ask
 what circuits there are?"
