Comment (by holin):

 My maint-8.0-armhf branch is now a bit cleaner and the x86 stuff should
 build like it did originally without the arm changes interfering.

 I also uploaded a set of binaries to
 https://sourceforge.net/projects/tor-browser-ports/
 in case there's someone who'd like to test it out. So far, I've only
 tested basic functionality on an ARM laptop running Debian stretch.

 Going forward, I'll probably import the changes over to master and try to
 get nightly to build. However, in the grand scheme of things, Rust and
 Firefox are heavy beasts and, I think, assuming tor project even considers
 native build an option, supporting 32-bit build platforms is not the way
 to go unless the said behemoths suddenly lose some serious weight.
