Looks like you need to upgrade www/libnghttp2 as well. :)

Thanks for reading, I'd be pleased to try any experiments suggested.

In general, www/node requires that all dependencies are up-to-date. The
port doesn't explicitly list minimum versions of its dependencies, but I
am beginning to think that it should (this is not the first time I have
seen this kind of problem).

You shouldn't have to list the minimum version for dependencies. If
someone is following the tip of the ports tree, it is expected that
all the port dependencies are up to date when building a port. All the
port-management tools in ports-mgmt assume this, and build
port-dependancies as required. When building ports, it is always best
to use one of the build-tools (ie: poudriere, synth , portmaster)
instead of by hand.

I may not have to, no, but since I have had a couple of reports about build errors due to out-of-date dependencies, I can help out fellow users by giving them a helpful message instead of a daunting build error.

Right? :)
