Comment (by boklm):

 Thanks!

 So the workaround for users who don't want to wait for the next release is
 to create the file
 Messenger/TorMessenger/Data/Browser/profile.default/preferences/prefs.js
 with the following two lines:
 {{{
 user_pref("gfx.direct2d.disabled", true);
 user_pref("layers.acceleration.disabled", true);
 }}}
