I thought it good that I had some familiarity with our new instructions
for building Tor with seccomp so I gave it a try. However, I had to do
some non-standard stuff since I didn't have an Debian source package to
base my work on:

1. I fetched the 0.2.5.11 tarball (and verified it) and unpacked it.
2. I applied a patch generated by:

       git diff tor-0.2.5.10..debian-tor-0.2.5.10


from the debian-tor Git repo.
3. I set source package format "3.0 (quilt)" and renamed the tarball
appropriately (to get separate .orig.tar.gz and .debian.tar.gz).
4. Then I followed our build instructions.

I've uploaded the packages to APT suite of feature/tor-0.2.5.11, built
an image and run every automated test suite feature that includes
networking, and hence Tor starting. All was green except pidgin.feature,
due to irc.oftc.net consistently hating on Tor.

Cheers!
