Comment(by tom):

 I don't have a smoking gun "safe" or "not safe" (obviously) - what I do
 have is some prelimiary results that hopefully will help with the process.
 I do have BinDiff.  I tried to generate reports for non-matching
 dlls/binaries, but bindiff hung.  I'm investigating.  Here's what I do
 have:

 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/

 The installer matched perfectly:
 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/(tbb)tor-browser-2.2.37
 -2_en-US%20vs%20(tbb)shon-tor-browser-2.2.37-2_en-US%20difference.html

 As did tbb-firefox:
 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/(Firefox)tbb-
 firefox%20vs%20(Firefox)tbb-firefox%20difference.html

 And plugin-container:
 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/(Firefox)plugin-
 container%20vs%20(Firefox)plugin-container%20difference.html

 libeay had a lot of changes.  But it seemed to be mostly due to inlining
 on a couple I spot-checked.  For example:
 On the left, inlined, on the right: no. http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-
 diff-2012-08-02/libeay-digestfinal-bindiff.PNG
 Official inlined: http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/libeay-
 digestfinal-official.PNG
 Shon's Not Inlined: http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02
 /libeay-digestfinal-shon.PNG
 Official's _ex function: http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02
 /libeay-digestfinal_ex-official.PNG
 Shon's ex function: http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02
 /libeay-digestfinal_ex-shon.PNG

 That makes a lot of things to go through.  There may be some way to do
 this in an automated way (in fact, I'm sure there is, and Rolf Rolles has
 probably done it) but I'm not good enough/don't have to free time to
 figure it out....

 Tor:
 438 out of 3560 matched at 95% similarity or less.  40 unmatched in
 official, 22 in shon.
 Here's an example of one difference:
 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/tor-tlscallback-
 bindiff.PNG

 I also went after the monster, xul.dll:
 3,241 of 79970 functions did not match perfectly, 24 unmatched in
 official, 28 in shon
 There's definetly some odd things things, like this:
 http://ritter.vg/misc/stuff/tbb-diff-2012-08-02/xul-random1-bindiff.PNG
