Comment (by ben):

 * Updated the patch to current tor browser based on Firefox 24 ESR.
 * Found a SOCKS server that's trivial to install, configure and run:
 JSocks <http://jsocks.sourceforge.net/>
 * Tested JSocks:
   * Normal Firefox, without SOCKS username: works
   * Tor browser with my patch, without SOCKS username, with SOCKS server
 hostname: fails (DNS lookups intentionally broken?)
   * Tor browser with my patch, without SOCKS username, with SOCKS server
 as IP address: works
   * Tor browser with my patch, with SOCKS username: FAIL
