 https://notabug.org/JeremyRand/tor-browser-build/src/armhf-esr60 (the
 armhf-esr60 branch).  Docs still at
 https://wiki.raptorcs.com/wiki/Porting/Tor_Browser .  One noteworthy thing
 is that, due to what is probably
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1452128 , I needed to upgrade
 to gcc 7.3.0 / binutils 2.29.1.  I don't know if that's a dealbreaker for
 Tor (and I haven't carefully tested whether the upgrade breaks anything on
 non-ARM platforms).  Can anyone from Tor comment on whether the specific
 gcc / binutils versions used by Tor Browser were chosen for a particular
 reason, and whether upgrading them would be considered if it's the most
 straightforward way to get ARM to work?

 7.3.0 is probably no problem.

 That's now #29335 and will happen in a couple of weeks once we start with
 the 9.0 alpha series and is the last missing piece as we already bumped
 binutils to 2.31.1.
