Comment:

 The bug_18127 branch on my tor-browser-bundle.git repo has a few fixes:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/boklm/tor-browser-
 bundle.git/commit/?h=bug_18127

 The bug_18127-v2 branch in my gitian-builder repo contains our patches
 rebased on master, the patch from PR 114, and a few other fixes:
 https://github.com/boklm/gitian-builder/commits/bug_18127-v2

 Using those changes I have been able to build Tor Browser 6.0a1 with both
 KVM and LXC, and the binaries produced were identical to the released
 6.0a1 builds (except for the Browser/TorBrowser/Docs/sources/bundle.inputs
 which contains the gitian-builder.git commit hash).
