 This is caused by setting INSTALL to "install -C" somewhere (e.g., in
 /etc/make.conf or in the enviroment) combined with MFC of interface
 breakage in -current (-C is now gratuitously incompatible with -d).
 
 This bug affects little more than share/sendmail since almost everything
 else uses depends on mtree preinstalling directories.  The share/sendmail
 subdirectories aren't in the mtree database.
