from earlier versions of Tor.
o Major bugfixes (v3 onion services):
- Make onion service always use the exact amount of configured intro
points (or less due to node exlusion). Before, a service could
sometimes pick more intro points than configured with the
HiddenServiceNumIntroductionPoints option. Fixes bug 31548; bugfix
- Onion services now always use the exact number of intro points
configured with the HiddenServiceNumIntroductionPoints option (or
fewer if nodes are excluded). Before, a service could sometimes
pick more intro points than configured. Fixes bug 31548; bugfix
on 0.3.2.1-alpha.
o Minor feature (onion services, control port):
- The ADD_ONION key blob keyword "BEST" now defaults from RSA1024
(v2) to ED25519-V3 (v3). Closes ticket 29669.
- The ADD_ONION key blob keyword "BEST" now defaults to ED25519-V3

- When running tests that attempt to look up hostnames, replace the
libc name lookup functions with ones that do not actually touch
the network. This way, the tests complete more quickly in the
presence of a slow or missing DNS resolver. Closes ticket 31841.
o Minor features (testing, continuous integration):
- Disable all but one Travis CI macOS build, to mitigate slow
scheduling of Travis macOS jobs. Closes ticket 32177.

o Minor bugfixes (mainloop, periodic events):
- Periodic events enabled flag was not unset properly when shutting
down tor cleanly. This had the side effect to not re-enable
periodic events when tor_api.h is used to relaunch tor after a
shutdown. Fixes bug 32058; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha.
o Minor bugfixes (mainloop, periodic events, in-process API):
- Reset the periodic events' "enabled" flag when Tor is shut down
cleanly. Previously, this flag was left on, which caused periodic
events not to be to not re-enabled when Tor was relaunched in-

o Minor bugfixes (process management):
- Remove overly strict assertions that triggers when a pluggable
transport is spawned in an unsuccessful manner. Fixes bug 31091;
bugfix on 0.4.0.1-alpha.
- Remove assertion in the Unix process backend. This assertion would
trigger when a new process is spawned where the executable is not
found leading to a stack trace from the child process. Fixes bug
