It looks like the change is due to NSS (Network Security Services),
not Firefox: <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=908046> and
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1183318>. I think the
3318 bug is most relevant, but I may be mistaken.

If I am parsing the various bug reports properly, it looks like
SSLKEYLOGFILE was disabled by default for release builds. It looks
like you might have to perform your own debug build to gain access
again. Or maybe the nightly builds of Firefox will have it.

Yeah, trying to build some of these projects is the pits.
