The question has already been answered on 2012-08-02.

You need to recompile the PNG library (from ports, does _not_
belong to the system - it's /usr/ports/graphics/png that will
install libpng to your system) with the "Animated PNG support"
(APNG) option [x] set. After doing so, you will be able to resume
your Firefox build. See "man ports" or the manual of your port
management tool (e. g. portmaster) on how to do that. Make sure
you do "make clean" prior to that attempt.

>From the error message which you _have not shown_ (so I'm just
guessing) it seems that libpng has been installed without the
animation support. If you can make sure it's properly installed
and you still get the error, please _show_ the error here so a
better diagnostics step can be done.
