The only time when a client sends a "getaddr" message is when he
esatblishes an Outbound connection (see ProcessMessage() in
src/main.cpp). Another bitcoin client is expected to receive a
"getaddr" message only on Inbound connection. Ignoring "gettaddr"
requests on Outbound connections can resolve potential privacy issues
(and as was said such request normally do not happen anyway).
