See https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/52.1.0/releasenotes/ Build against bundled sqlite, as Gloda (the global indexing database behind the search field, not the 'quick filter' search bar) relies on SQLITE_ENABLE_FTS3_TOKENIZER (see #1252937) - and it might not be a good idea to enable this option in the systemwide sqlite install. Might be revisited once #1270882 is fixed. Gloda not working issue reported & fix tested by mpi@ ok mpi@
