What is meant by the term "blocked by other ports"? The error still
comes up with firefox and -current as of yesterday. 

Long ago I brought the issue up on the freebsd-arm list and was told,
iiuc, that it's an upstream problem in clang/llvm and not  fixable by 
the freebsd-arm community. My present query was more an effort to find
out if there is any prospect for a short-term workaround. Far as I can
tell there isn't even a cross-compiled firefox package for RPI2 

Thanks for replying!
