Roger,

Sorry, but I think that patch is not the correct way to go. With 
"AllowInvalidNodes middle,rendezvous" (Tor v. 0.1.1.22) in my 
torrc-file, I expect my Tor client not to build a circuit that uses an 
invalid exit node. So apparently, something concerning this option is 
broken and this should be fixed.

Regards,
Gompie
