I updated the ticket to say something like this :-)

Also, are you aware that inbound connections can come in on ORPorts
that are configured like this, and therefore aren't bound to a local
address at all?

ORPort 91.121.230.208:9001
ORPort [2001:41d0:d:22a6::1:0]:9001

And that the OutboundBindAddress setting can be set like this, and
bind to exactly the same addresses?

OutboundBindAddress 91.121.230.208
OutboundBindAddress [2001:41d0:d:22a6::1:0]
