It was badexited in October 2015, with the reason "rewrite HTTP requests
to port 8123".

That's the polipo port, so I wonder if they were running some sort of
polipo + broken iptables setup.

There were a pile of exit relays around that address, all messing with
exit traffic on that port, and most of them have disappeared since then.
