I got a bunch of those on March 7, followed two minutes later by "Tor has 
successfully opened a circuit. Looks like client functionality is working.". 
I also see that I rebooted the other computer at that time. What happened, I 
don't know. But it looks like Tor couldn't connect to anything at that time. 
It should say "[scrubbed]" if you have SafeLogging on, but it spells out the 
hidden address.
