 Going through the blog comments I found: https://blog.torproject.org/blog
 /tor-messenger-beta-chat-over-tor-easily#comment-113499 which basically
 says
 {{{
 Windows XP, instantbird.exe - entry point not found:
 "the procedure entry point _vsnprintf_s could not be located in the
 dynamic library msvcrt.dll"
 }}}
 This is basically the Tor Browser issue in #9084. So, it seems something
 goes wrong with the Windows cross-compilation.
