#3904: TBB build package lacks patches

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 The build of the TBB (from tor-browser-2.2.32-2-src.tar.gz) fails with
 this error:

 cp: cannot stat `../src/current-patches/000*': No such file or directory

 That's because there actually isn't a directory named "current-patches" in
 the build tree.  If the TBB maintainer prefers not to bundle the current
 patches with the build files, can we have them downloaded with the TBB
 component source tarballs?

 That said, I'd like to make the case for including the patches with the
 build files.  The patches are applied to a specific version of a given
 component source package (i.e. Firefox 6.0.1).  It makes sense to me that
 patches associated with source version x should be kept with the build
 that specifies that version.
