Comment(by mikeperry):

 FYI: the #5477 fix is not active in your TBB version yet. It won't take
 effect until 3.0dev6 of HTTPS-Everywhere is shipped. It also won't apply
 to TBB 2.2.x, only 2.3.x has the requisite Firefox patch for now.

 However, I am curious if this issue will still happen with that fix. The
 new API's internal redirect machinery should be a lot more clean wrt
 notifications and observers, as it is the same codepath as HSTS uses and I
 believe great care was taken to preserve all the notifications in the
 right order with HSTS.
