>Description:
In the "Setting up a Jail Directory Tree" of the man page jail(8) it gives some instructions for setting up a jail.  It fails to mention that you need to create the jail directory first.  I figured the "make buildworld" or one of the following commands would create it, but it does not.   "make buildworld" eventually fails on an "mtree" command.
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Either change the manpage or change the build process to create the directory if it doesn't already exist.
