+ o Minor features:
+
+ - AutomapHostsOnResolve now support IPv6 addresses. By default, we
+ prefer to hand out virtual IPv6 addresses, since there are more of
+ them and we can't run out. To override this behavior and make
+ IPv4 addresses preferred, set NoPreferIPv6Automap on whatever
+ SOCKSPort or DNSPort you're using for resolving. Implements
+ ticket #7571.
+
+ - AutomapHostsOnResolve responses are now randomized, to avoid
+ annoying situations where Tor is restarted and applications
+ connect to the wrong addresses.
