It appears lang/rust just became a critical port.
It's now required for www/firefox.

I was going to offer to remove DF support from lang/rust because we have 
two other rust ports, but if it's required for mozilla, I think DF 
testing becomes rather critical.

Unless the dependency on rust by firefox is optional and DF can remove 
it?  I would almost prefer that, the firefox dependency on rust scares 
me a lot.
