I tried it again, this time building rust-cbindgen directly from ports
after a "pkg delete", rather than using portupgrade.  Then the build of
firefox worked.

I only started using portupgrade recently.  I find it rather unreliable.
 I think the problem is that some ports need to be deleted before they
can be built successfully.
