https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/blame/sys/conf/files shows the lines that
I quoted that indicate dependencies on various *.fw.uu files.

It is true that a pre 2024-Dec-12 installation is attempting to
build what I reported: 2025-01-25 00:07:01 +0000 ( i.e., n275030
46a9fb7287f41eedf321d81a68a826f231d11bfe ). I had not updated
at all between those times and was finally trying to update.
