With my /etc/fonts/local.conf, Firefox segfaulted, but after moving my
configuration out of the way, I saw the same font rendering issue.

Same here, and this is also true for another few libraries. AFAICS, the
problem is actually Fontconfig:
$ ldd /usr/pkg/lib/firefox3/firefox-bin | grep fontconfig
-lfontconfig.1 => /usr/pkg/lib/libfontconfig.so.1
-lfontconfig.1 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libfontconfig.so.1
Forcing Firefox not to link against the Fontconfig version from XFree86
fixed the problem for me.
