Instead the normal about:tor page was loaded. The "Update was successfully
installed" was missing, though, as expected.

Here is what I did:
1) I applied the patches to tor-browser-bundle.git and tor-browser.git (on
new branches) and updated the config.yml
2) I tagged the new commit on tor-browser.git and pointed `versions.alpha`
to it (and disabled the signature verification for alphas)
3) I tagged tbb-5.5a1-build4 with all of it
4) I rebuilt the browser part and rebundled
5) I generated the XML files for the updater and checked that boklm's
patch did indeed include the additional attributes
6) I took a MAR file and signed it
7) I applied that MAR file manually to 5.0a4
8) I restarted and just got an about:tor page but no "You successfully
updated Tor Browser" dialog
