firefox-1.5_2,1

>Description:
Firefox (as cvsup'ed today) asks me to accept certificates issued by
the "well known"/"built-in" CAs as RSA DS and Verisign when
using SSL.
This seems to be related to the issue described in this thread
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-gnome/2005-August/011919.html
(libnssckbi.so is not searched for in /usr/local/lib/ where it resides
but in /usr/local/lib/netscape/ which does not exist).
Indeed ktrace/kdump shows
  25152 firefox-bin CALL  stat(0x8698ac0,0xbfbfa738)
  25152 firefox-bin NAMI  "/usr/X11R6/lib/firefox/libnssckbi.so"
  25152 firefox-bin RET   stat -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
  25152 firefox-bin CALL  stat(0x8698b40,0xbfbfa738)
  25152 firefox-bin NAMI  "/usr/local/lib/netscape/libnssckbi.so"
  25152 firefox-bin RET   stat -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
  25152 firefox-bin CALL  stat(0x8698b80,0xbfbfa738)
  25152 firefox-bin NAMI  "/usr/X11R6/lib/firefox/libnssckbi.so"
  25152 firefox-bin RET   stat -1 errno 2 No such file or directory
  25152 firefox-bin CALL  gettimeofday(0xbfbfa960,0)

Should work as described in
