Well, in my case - partially. I had gone through pkg_rolling-replace
when I built 76.01 on the 25th of May; a few days later - aroud the
29th - I had another rolling-replace (always after cvs update, of
course, plus pkgclean and 'pkg_admin rebuild-tree' in advance.

For firefox-77.0 I had only devel/{cbindgen,nss} rebuilt.
