fixes bug 8387; fix on 0.1.1.11-alpha (code), or on 0.2.4.10-alpha (behavior).

+  o Major bugfixes (client):

+    - Perform circuit cleanup operations even when circuit
+      construction operations are disabled (because the network is
+      disabled, or because there isn't enough directory information).

+      Fixes bug 8387; bugfix on 0.1.1.11-alpha. This bug became visible
