 Thanks. There is still a Windows block in the build script for `libfte`
 and we can remove the 32bit Jessie container in the `debootstrap-image`
 config file. Moreover, I think we should not squash those commits as they
 are somewhat unrelated.

 Unforunately/luckily I worked at that yesterday as well but did forget to
 update the ticket as my testbuilds took a long time rebuilding everything.
 But: here is a branch I came up with which I think is ready for review:
 `bug_29307_v5` (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/log/?h=bug_29307_v5).
