    Have a proxy open two connections to the client.
    
    I hope this is a stopgap measure until we can figure out
    https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-dev/2012-December/004221.html.
    What's going wrong is that each time you register, you have some
    probability of success (close to 1). Requiring a second connection
    squares (lowers) this success probability, not to mention it's slower
    because flashproxy-reg-email can take up to a minute to serve you after
    you register.
