Comment(by mikeperry):

 Actually, since both deadlines are set in stone, I think #5956 is more
 important than Firefox 10ESR EOL at this point too (now that we have
 directory guards).

 The good news though is that I think our 17ESR patches+Torbutton 1.5 is in
 a position to build a TBB alpha right now, so that may carry us for long
 enough with testing for me to get these two done. If not, I guess it a
 working 17ESR TBB-alpha just waits another week for me to do these two.
