We could use the XOR hack for now and remove it the next time we reset
testnet. But I do think the 111 is baggage we want to get rid of. Using
the lsb as a simple flag is much cleaner.

I agree it is cleaner, but I think breaking compatiblity with older address (even testnet) is not a good idea right now. It is important to build an image of stability and backward compatibility.

So I vote for the XOR 111 hack :)
