Errr... I think you missed a point ;-)
Aurora IS Firefox or, at least, it's the release name.
When building custom version of Mozilla products from source you can't use the 
same name as the official packages. That's the TL;DR of the Mozilla Public 
Policy.
TBB is a custom version of Mozilla Firefox built by the Tor Project and shipped 
together with Vidalia and some other programs and libraries.
So, if you want to have something which looks like TBB on a PowerPC Mac, 
install Vidalia, grab a copy of TenFourFox and install required extensions.

Beware this is not enough!

TBB has been built to address a specific threat model and Firefox has been 
patched and configured accordingly to that model so I'm the first to warn you 
that "just run Firefox with required extensions" is close enough but not the 
same thing.

Ciao!
