If you haven't noticed, there are quite a few slightly more serious
issues I need to deal with at the moment.

Also, if you check git blame, you'll also see that I have never touched
start-tor-browser, nor have the browser hackers.

If you recall, it was because of this, and because your patches were
specific to the Linux version, that I suggested that you maintain your
own fork for now, because no one maintains that script.

We're also looking to replace start-tor-browser with a direct launch
of Firefox on all platforms, which will hopefully solve a lot of
problems, not just yours.

Thank you for your patience!
