That seems to have done it.

I added virtual/cargo to /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords/cargo 
which did have dev-util/cargo ~amd64.  It now also has virtual/cargo ~amd64.

Now emerge -aDuN @world seems to be happy and is currently emerge: (2 of 3).

Thank you for your help.  :-)

I'm not completely sure what that means.  I'm guessing you're asking 
about accept_keywords.  I'm mostly (?) running stock amd64.  I have 
added ~amd64 to some packages for various reasons over the 2+ years that 
this install has been around.

I don't remember adding ~amd64 for dev-util/cargo.  I wonder if I added 
it when I wanted to try the newer Firefox.

emerge -aDuN @world is now happy (or at least not blocking / erroring 
out) and compiling things as I type this email.

Thank you again, everybody, for your help.  :-)
