Firefox does its own thing for finding its sharable libs, so /usr/local/lib/firefox is not in the loader hint, but firefox knows where they are and does load them. this is a side effect of -v. You asked for false positives and you got them. Oh, and specifying -R or -r is only relevant when a specific port is listed. 'pkg_libchk -Rrv' does nothing more than just 'pkg_libchk -v'. -- R.
