Comment(by erinn):
Testing on a both normal and obfsproxy bundles on OSX (32-bit and 64-bit),
same result on all:
* https://check.torproject.org/?lang=en-US&small=1&uptodate=1 is the URL
it goes to and is what is stored in browser.startup.homepage
* https://check.torproject.org does not load in the current or any new
tab, before or after browsing to other sites (which work)
My argument that this is a blocker is primarily that some people rely on
the obfsproxy bundles and they are only available as alpha bundles. While
I understand that this doesn't actually affect how TBB works for any site
except check.tpo, check.tpo is the first site it goes to and it looks like
the bundle doesn't work. We can certainly issue a warning that there's
some weird bug here, but I'd really love to get it fixed instead. Is there
anything I can do to help with that? Right now I can't even downgrade them
to 1.4.6 because of the sandbox exceptions... not a lot of great options.
