Comment (by lbo):

 Happens also on Linux with Tor Browser 9.0.4. I tried working around this
 by importing with pk12util from package libnss3-tools:

 pk12util -v -i my_cert.pfx

 pk12util: function failed: SEC_ERROR_LEGACY_DATABASE: The certificate/key
 database is in an old, unsupported format.

 pk12util -v -i my_cert.pfs -d sql:$HOME/.mozilla/firefox/dypqxuy7.default-
 release/

 Enter password for PKCS12 file:
 pk12util: PKCS12 IMPORT SUCCESSFUL

 But imported certificate still doesn't show up in Firefox
 about:preferences => View Certificates
