Partly true:

 - 'make installworld' will succeed (except, I think, in the NO_ROOT
   case), because it doesn't run mtree.

 - 'make distributeworld' will fail, but that's a bug: it should use
   DB_FROM_SRC.

 - mergemaster will also fail, but in an exceedingly strange manner.

The fact that neither 'make installworld' nor mergemaster create missing
directories is probably a bug.  We should, at the very least, document
the need to run 'make hierarchy' before 'make installworld'.

Yep, but for now I decided to follow precedent.
