--- Comment #16 from Maxnix <maxnix.bsd@gmail.com> ---
I had a similar issue too. For what is worth I observed this behaviour with
kern.elf64.allow_wx=0, which IIRC is the default on 13.2-RELEASE. To workaround
this without disabling W^X I enabled W^X mappings just for Firefox:

elfctl +wxneeded /usr/local/lib/firefox/firefox

The downside of this is that everytime Firefox is upgraded/reinstalled the
above command had to be re-executed.

HTH
