 Yeah, sorry for that I did not sign the .exe file. But I am glad I found
 the right knobs to turn. :)

 I pushed the patch per accident onto `tor-browser-60.7.0esr-9.0-1`
 directly (commit 9d582e62e32ee8143fd638744f2f5f0f49c28ca3), instead of
 pointing to my public tor-browser repo. Sorry for that mistake (I'll leave
 the patch in for now to avoid additional overhead backout/reapply
 overhead). Please use that version for review, so we can include it in the
 next release.
