Thanks. I pointed some folks on irc to this mail, and Daniel Veditz (Mozilla Security Team) said "the Firefox team was sent a copy of that this morning. We've found the bug being used and are working on a patch."

So it sounds like the immediate next step is that Mozilla finishes their patch for it; then the step after that is a quick Tor Browser update. And somewhere in there people will look at the bug and see whether they think it really does apply to Tor Browser.
