I am not sure, but last year there was a bug fix concerning directory mirrors
submitting wrong IP addresses to clients which auto-detect their addresses.
Maybe the relay here was an old one with exactly this problem?

>From https://svn.torproject.org/svn/tor/trunk/ReleaseNotes:
- Patch from "Andrew S. Lists" to catch when we contact a directory
      mirror at IP address X and he says we look like we're coming from
      IP address X. Otherwise this would screw up our address detection.

Bye,
