I went away and did something else for a while, then came back and did two things: 1. Made an entry in package.env; 2. Removed the package.use firefox line. So I now have 'L10N="en-GB en"' in make.conf, 'www-client/firefox nol10n.conf' in package.env, 'L10N="en"' in env/nol10n.conf and nothing in package.use. All is now well. -- Regards, Peter.
