Hello Mark,

I'm testing firefox-114.0.1 on 13-STABLE with:

$ proccontrol -m aslr -s disable firefox

and it runs fine without problems.

Recent discussion on:
https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/dev-commits-ports-all/2023-June/067113.html

What should be done here?

- Disable aslr at build time via an option
- Show message at install time about disabling aslr at runtime with
proccontrol, for aarch64 and let user use it if he having problems
- Fix it upstream, optimal solution :)

I'm new to aarch64 and I did found some dificulties to get into aslr
connection.
I remember that some users at forums having same problem with no answer at all.

Thanks
