 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"
