>Description:
I have successfully built mail/thunderbird 24.4.0. Thunderbird start normally. But any attempt to add a new email account crashes thunderbird with writing out thunderbird.core.

To investigate thunderbird in more detail I have copied my Linux
profile to the FreeBSD machine. Thunderbird uses this profile and
seems otherwise OK but any attempt to add another email account
crashes it again.

# make showconfig
