I prefer to use /var/tmp in that case. There's a problem with multiple
concurrent installworlds if you save the binaries in the shared object
tree.

If we don't need mtree in the bootstrap-tools, than we sure need to save
it during installworld. This can only be done if the mtree changes are
reverted, right?
