Comment (by boklm):

 Replying to [comment:1 mcs]:
 > Similar to the minSupportedOSVersion update manifest attribute that we
 added for the Mac OS 10.6 issue (see
 https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/13047#comment:3), we
 should add support for a new attribute such as: `minInstructionSet="SSE2"`

 I attached a first version of a patch to do that, but I did not test it
 yet, so it may not work.

 I think there will still be an issue with people upgrading to the new
 ESR52 version from Tor Browser <= 6.5.1 (skipping the version that added
 support for the minInstructionSet attribute), as their browser will not
 know this attribute. If we want to avoid this, we will need to change the
 `update_2` from the updates URL to `update_3` (similar to what we did in
 #13047).
