    Exits don't need to fetch certs for unknown authorities · 5193752c
    Nick Mathewson authored
    When we started RefuseUnknownExits back in 0.2.2.11-alpha, we
    started making exits act like they cache directory info (since they
    need an up-to-date idea of who is really a router).  But this
    included fetching needless (unrecognized) authorities' certs, which
    doesn't make any sense for them.
    
    This is related to, but not necessarily the same as, the issue that
    Ian reported for bug #2297.
    
    (This patch is based on a patch from a user who I believe has asked
    not to be named.  If I'm wrong about that, please add the
    appropriate name onto the changelog.)
