 My TBB 4.0-alpha-2 (32-bit Linux) popped up a thing saying there was an
 update ready. I said 'ok get it'. A while later it popped up a window with
 the title "Software Update" which said that the following extensions were
 incompatible with this new version, and they would be disabled until they
 were fixed to be compatible: Torbutton, Tor Launcher, HTTPS Everywhere.

 My network here is really crappy -- is it possible there's some "try to
 reach the thing to check compatibility, if you time out, assume they're
 not compatible" logic somewhere?

 (I'm assuming that the extensions do indeed self-identify as being
 compatible with all TBB 4.x.)
