Comment (by mcs):

 boklm and gk, thanks for all of your work to test this. It turns out that
 your test was better (cleaner) than the tests that Kathy and I did. Here
 is a revised patch:

 https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/brade/tor-
 browser.git/commit/?h=bug13512_02&id=53b390da3498684ea70740d92754f87fe102e2af

 The difference between this patch and the previous one is the addition of
 some code inside needHomepageOverride() (within
 nsBrowserContentHandler.js) to detect the situation where an upgrade just
 occurred from an older release of Tor Browser that does not have this new
 patch applied. In our testing we used a scenario equivalent to TB 5.5a2 to
 TB 5.5a3 (in other words, we were upgrading *from* a browser that already
 had this patch applied).  Please review and test this one.
