That doesn't seem to have worked out for me, either, exactly.  I tried
creating the /etc/libmap.conf file as offered for a workaround:

    [/usr/local/lib/firefox3/firefox-bin]
    libpthread.so.2             libthr.so.2
    libpthread.so               libthr.so

=2E . . but this is the result:

    > firefox3

    (firefox-bin:39533): GLib-GObject-WARNING **:
    IA__g_object_weak_unref: couldn't find weak ref 0x29e9ce10(0x809a330)
    Segmentation fault

I seem to have unsubscribed from freebsd-ports@ a while ago, so I can't
just respond in-thread to the "www/firefox35 coredumps" discussion there.
Would it be better for me to start a new thread on freebsd-ports@ rather
than continue discussing it here?
