Below is what I either haven't tested yet or stuff I have tested but
have comments about. I.e. stuff not listed here are already tested with
positive results.

Same as before (only PING and VERSION responds, and does so truthfully.)

Can't check since my ISP doesn't support IPv6.

Neither `gpg --search` not seahorse's key search works. WTF? Is the
hidden service down per chance?

They work, but Torbutton seems to block opening it (file:// vs.
http(s):// I suppose).
