Comment (by gk):

 Okay, I pushed another commit onto the `bug_24912` branch
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_24912&id=62f2dced863d2dfcd5076c101bda0f4c9c10d508)
 to deal with the osx sandbox situation, please review.

 I think I'll go the maint-branch road as I am a bit unclear how to deal
 efficiently with having different versions per project depending on the
 stable/alpha series. I'd especially like to avoid the hassle coming from
 new toolchain versions during the next alpha cycle.

 So, what is left then is the commit above, copying over the .dmg
 background etc. from `maint-7.0` to the new `maint-7.5` branch and then
 adjusting the version numbers for the stable accordingly.
