Update? The ports tree may assume -CURRENT is... uhm, relatively current.
There were many libthr changes since then and before, e.g.
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/mid.cgi?4CC6D915.3010900
www/firefox36 doesn't use pthread_attr_get_np(3)
which was just a few days after, on 25 Oct. But you're probably hit by
smth else. Build it with symbols and show gdb backtrace as starting point.
