This is actually an error message from the GNU assembler, which is
invoked by the compiler driver.  Can you figure out whether it is the
base version (/usr/bin/as) or the ports version (/usr/local/bin/as)?
E.g. manually run that command line with -v, so see which assembler it
runs.

Also, I wonder why they don't use the integrated assembler in clang, but
that is an aspect of the firefox port I'm not familiar with.
