Did you forget to log stderr? There's no error message as for why the recipe failed, usually a compiler error.

I have redirected stdout to file using tee, because I expected stderr on stdout.

Nevertheless, I rebuilt www/firefox - meanwhile at version 37.0.2 - with
# portmaster -D -G www/firefox >/tmp/firefox_build.log 2>&1

and found no additional information. I am not sure if this is what you mean.
Comment 3 pvoigt 2015-05-13 09:03:13 UTC 
Well, yesterday I discovered how to use pkg to check shared library depenndencies and I found a stale dependency of print/cups-filters on port openssl. After a rebuild of prints/cups-filters against base openssl I started a rebuild of www/firefox - success!

One hint about my above conclusion: I noticed that I could not even cleanly install www/firefox as a binary package because pkg insisted on installing port openssl. But my system does not have port openssl installed at all. Instead I recently rebuilt all ports against base openssl.

I change the status of this PR correspondingly.
