make release does a make world in the chroot:
rerelease release:
...
.if make(release)
echo " (cd etc; make distrib-dirs distribution)" >> ${CHROOTDIR}/mk
echo " make ${WORLD_FLAGS} world && \\" >> ${CHROOTDIR}/mk
.endif
...
chroot ${CHROOTDIR} /mk
I haven't ever seen this before. Are you using any other customizations
besides LOCAL_SCRIPT? Are you specifying NO_CRYPTO or something?

Well, then as Jordan stated, the ports need to be fixed. The actual release
process itself is not broken in this respect, however.

AFAIK, it's just copied off of the previous CD-ROM each time. I don't think
it's been updated in quite some time. :) DOS is not used though. I think that
the tools/ subdir on the CD is considered a WC/BSDi addon though, not part of
the base system.

That's what LOCAL_SCRIPT is for in this case. make release isn't really
designed to patch together various source collections, it's designed to build a
release from one source collection.

Just add the appropriate lines to the INDEX file and they will show up fine.
If you actually add ports directories for them to /usr/ports and rebuild the
INDEX (via 'make index') it will DTRT. Note that you don't need all of ports/
to do this, just ports/Mk and ports/tlambert (or whatever) and a suitable
modified list of directories in ports/Makefile.
