Comment:
Please see my branch bug17750_029, which also adds some regression tests
for this bug and #20534.
I marked this for 0.3.1 backport. If we do backport, we only need to
backport the squashed commit "Make clients try fallbacks before
authorities".
And we might not want to backport at all, given the risk of bugs in older
versions. The only thing this bug causes is more load on the directory
authorities.
