 It's not related. (Also, you can link to a bug number in Trac by typing it
 as `#2011` (which displays as #2011).)

 If you're willing to unpack a tarball and move files around manually to
 test this, download:
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbutton.git/snapshot/bc661c80d1e835d12330138505c1af246baac658.tar.gz]

 and copy the contents of the resulting `src/` directory into
 `extensions/{e0204bd5-9d31-402b-a99d-a6aa8ffebdca}/` in your Firefox
 profile directory.  (Your Firefox profile directory has a name that looks
 like `gibberish.default`.)

 (That snapshot is of the commit right before #2011 was introduced, and is
 after the new cookie-management features were added.)
