Necessary for thunderbird, but worrying : upstream sqlite turned it

I came across a post on an sqlite list the other day, suggesting it
would be better to do that with a static sqlite (e.g. the version
included in thunderbird) so it would be limited to that one
application. But then, we prefer system sqlite because in the past
there were problems when the version of sqlite in an application
differed from the system version.
FWIW, this is how other distros have handled it. That said, as suggested
on the sqlite list, using an internal only version is clearly a better
solution (if workable). I was just so focused on the segfaults, and
enjoying a short lived sense of relief (before I realized that I wasn't
actually done), it didn't even occur to me to try the internal version
rather than 'fix' the system version. Shouldn't take too long. I'll give
them both a rebuild tonight and see how it behaves with internal SQLite.
I'll report back when complete.

Just finished building to the latest instructions (2016-06-30) and so
far all seems well. I'm using it for this email. Thanks!
