 Torbutton would still work on FF24esr, so we don't have to make a separate
 branch for the 31esr series.

 unless we do some version detection within Torbutton and or just ship both
 the old and the new logic (as the current patch does), a thing I'd like to
 avoid.

 I can see good arguments both for and against using version detection. We
 could use version detection during the transition period bewteen ESRs and
 then delete code for ESR 24 after it's retired. What do you think? I'll
 post patches here for review once we've decided which way to go.
