Comment (by cypherpunks):

 I just tested it a bunch of times, with a fresh tor-browser, and could
 only get it to fail once, which is embarrassing. I haven't been able to
 replicate it since. When I made the comment on the blog I could get it to
 fail consistently.

 When it did fail external-app-helper popped up and the file didn't make it
 into about:downloads, not even as failed download, nor did it appear on
 the filesystem.

 Multiprocess windows are enabled, and for what it's worth, I'm running
 tor-browser within a vm with a single cpu. If it happens again I'll take a
 closer look in the browser and the web console... sorry.
