core(5) dumps may contain passwords, sessions, cookies, etc. and have to
exactly match the program they came from. Maybe extract useful bits
yourself e.g.,

  $ lldb $(which firefox) --core /path/to/firefox.core
  (lldb) bt

or

  $ pkg install gdb
  $ /usr/local/bin/gdb firefox /path/to/firefox.core
  (gdb) bt

It may give you an idea where to look e.g., which dependency to rebuild.
For debugging you'd have to bisect build environment until it matches
poudriere similar to how freebsd.org packages are built.
