Comment (by mcs):
Tracking down the root cause of this is proving to be challenging. My
Windows debugging skills seem to be inadequate, especially when the
browser is running in multiprocess mode. Here are some additional things
that Kathy and I learned:
* In addition to the undefined entity bug, sometimes a blank page is
loaded instead of about:tor. When a blank page is loaded, that tab is
useless (all pages silently fail to load, including internal pages such as
about:config).
* The problems with about:tor do not always occur. They seem to occur
every time with a clean install or when running with
TOR_FORCE_NET_CONFIG=1.
* When about:tor does not load correctly, Wextensions (all) do not work
either. This points to some kind of race or other bug during
initialization.
* Reducing the sandbox level makes these problems disappear: if I set
`security.sandbox.content.level` to `2` about:tor loads correctly every
time, but a setting of `3` or higher causes problems.
