New description:

 Tor Browser in its default mode (i.e. with JavaScript allowed) freezes
 when loading `http://zeit.de`. This happens every time when requesting
 https://www.facebook.com/tr/.

 My console output stops always with
 {{{
 [05-23 16:59:52] Torbutton INFO: tor SOCKS: https://www.facebook.com/tr/
 via
                        zeit.de:a137cc9014c3589a23fe6c5d354a4d7d
 }}}

 After a bit of debugging it turns out that vanilla Firefox 52 versions are
 affected as well but only if NoScript is installed. This happens with
 NoScript 5.0.4 at least.
