(MacOS Beta121.0b1) Thunderbird fails to start with a profile that has master password enabled. perhaps.

I usually switch between profiles using the profile manager, but today there was a profile that I couldn't start. It looks like the profile has a master password enabled.

New profile → Load the problematic profile settings → Successful startup → Enable master password → Unable to start.
