Comment:

 Bisecting gives me 3acd55740d447b2afb47ab5da5e3eece93337829 as the first
 bad commit. bug_19856 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 bundle.git/commit/?h=bug_19856) has a possible fix reverting to
 libfaketime for the gitian-utils part for OS X which fixes the problem for
 me. I am open to better solutions, though, if we can get to one before we
 need to build the next alpha.
