This bug is not present in current and recent versions of Debian.

Do you mean this bug in Tor 0.1.0 which was fixed in 2005?
-------------- begin quote from the Debian changelog --------------
tor (0.1.0.11-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream version (closes: #316753):
- Fixes a serious bug: servers now honor their exit policies -
In 0.1.0.x only clients enforced them so far. 0.0.9.x is
not affected.
* Build depend on libevent-dev >= 1.1.
* Urgency high because 0.0.9.10-1 did not make it into testing after
like 3 weeks because of an impending ftp-master move. So I might
just as well upload this one.
