(In reply to Nuno Teixeira from comment #5)

Not being part of gecko@, I simply don't know.  When I commented above,
'bsd.gecko.mk' contained 'llvm:17', which was changed to 'llvm:min=17' by
Christoph Moench-Tegeder (cmt), the commit messages implying that ESR versions
of Firefox and Thunderbird initially didn't build with LLVM 18 but were made to
with ports tree patches.

So:
1. With the current ports tree, directly modifying 'Mk/bsd.gecko.mk' is not
needed anymore, one can use 'DEFAULT_VERSIONS+=llvm=18' in its
'/etc/make.conf'.
2. Christoph Moench-Tegeder is probably a (the?) good interlocutor for
answering your question. So assigning this PR to him in the meantime.

For Christoph: If you are not the right assignee, do you know who could be?

Thanks and regards.
