infinite directory information retrieval loop

After upgrading from version 0.1.1.26 to version 0.1.2.13 (Debian package version 0.1.2.13-3 from mirror.noreply.org), tor fails to initialise. It seems to be stuck in an infinite loop:

May 12 00:59:19.239 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit. May 12 00:59:19.272 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit. May 12 00:59:19.305 [notice] I learned some more directory information, but not enough to build a circuit. ...and so on

It seems to bombard the directory servers with new connections at the same rate.

... tcp 0 0 192.168.0.164:37919 86.59.21.38:80 ESTABLISHED103 6329904 27340/tor
tcp 0 0 192.168.0.164:37914 86.59.21.38:80 ESTABLISHED103 6329896 27340/tor
tcp 199 0 192.168.0.164:37893 86.59.21.38:80 CLOSE_WAIT 103 6329866 27340/tor
...

My tor router runs behind a NAT-firewall, with the listener ports 9001 and 9030 forwarded to the right host and 'Address' in torrc set to a FQDN pointing to the external IP address.

The daemon runs in a Xen-domU, but I don't think this problem is related to that.
