Comment:

 There is no such define available. I guess you could check for the
 existence of `TOR_BROWSER_VERSION` to make sure the replacement code only
 kicks in in the Tor Browser case. However, I think we could just make sure
 an empty string is returned unconditionally right now and ask Mozilla what
 changes they would like to see to get the patch upstreamed.
