I believe firefox is to use its own sqlite3. There was a discussion
about this a while ago[1]. firefox is trying to fix an issue (IIRC)
where deleting personal info (cookies or browse history maybe?) wasn't
really getting deleted it from the sqlite3's database file. firefox
was changed to require sqlite3 to be built with SQLITE_SECURE_DELETE
(details and more links[1]).
