See (e.g.) https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243629 --
note that dropping databases/sqlite3 back to sqlite3-3.30.1 (from
sqlite3-3.31.0) appears to resolve the issue; it seem sthat firefox was
using a non-public interface, and that interface changed....

Note that databases/sqlite3 has been reverted as of ports (head)
revision r524241.

Peace,
