I agree and would like to see a Tor Browser for BSDs, too. I've created
#14942 for that. Whoever wants to work on this feel free to do so. We
won't have the means to do that ourselves in the foreseeable future. I
am happy to help, though, if there pop up cross-compiling issues
unexpectedly as we have some experience with those I guess...
