I ran "make clean" before each attempt. I build packages using
pkg_comp1.  Twice now I deleted all packages, removed the whole
chroot including the work directory, built it all over again with
rust (src) specified before firefox and it still failed. However,
I started all over yet once again, and after updating pkgsrc again
and it appears that it is working with rust-src this time. Both
rust-src and firefox were updated in pkgsrc this time.

Thanks

And yet it doesn't run rustc, even though I used a GENERIC kernel
which certainly should :

 # NetBSD backward compatibility. Support goes from COMPAT_15 up until
 # the latest release. Note that really old compat (< COMPAT_16) is only
 # useful for 32-bit i386 binaries.
 include         "conf/compat_netbsd15.config"
