+  o Minor features (security):
+    - Channels using obsolete versions of the Tor link protocol are no
+      longer allowed to circumvent address-canonicity checks.
+      (This is only a minor issue, since such channels have no way to
+      set ed25519 keys, and therefore should always be rejected.)
+      Closes ticket 40081.
