Some ideas...

File a ticket with the issue. Offer help.

Solving other tickets removes load from the Tor developers.

Go to irc.oftc.net #tor-dev and offer help.

Research possibilities in torcheck with distributed trust and mirrors.

Help making torcheck redundant. It's only a hack so or so. Find out for
what it is used right now. Everything can be probable replaced with
other checks.

Tor should figure out itself if connected to Tor:
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6546

Tor Browser update mechanism has also much space for improvement:
- https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5236
- https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/3994
- Thandy!

Yes, that's it. Lots of possibilities to help. Too difficult? Still
interested?
