It turns out that over the past week or so, there have been several
_different_ firefox ebuilds released.  One of them was broken:

  Version 52.4.0 (Oct 3) was OK.

  Version 52.4.0 (Oct 7) was broken.

  Version 52.4.0 (Oct 9) is OK.

You (and I) had successfully installed the Oct 3 version of 52.4.0,
but when I tried to install the Oct 7 version of 52.4.0, it failed.
The Oct 9 version is supposed to be fixed. I don't really see how you
can repeatedly release new versions of something without changing the
version number, but maybe that's just me...
