Comment:

 Okay, a patch for review is up at `bug_25894`
 (https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/gk/tor-browser-
 build.git/commit/?h=bug_25894&id=5d6c53155f6fc8d49185dde166ac0471ba2347ae)
 in my public tor-browser-build repo. It needs #25862 and #25832 fixed
 before, though (which we want to have anyway for switching to ESR 60 I
 think).

 The 32bit cross-compilation has been a huge pain in the butt because it is
 essentially broken right now. For details, see: https://github.com/rust-
 lang/rust/issues/12859. Thanks to the help of Alex Crichton and Manish
 Goregaokar I was able to come up with a minimal patch that works around
 that problem.

 I verified that the resulting x86_64 Rust toolchain is able to compile the
 necessary Rust bits shipped in ESR 60.
