1.5_ALPHA GENERIC derivative with recent pkgsrc

>Description:
	
	cd package_of_your_choice
	cp -R files filesnew
	make FILESDIR=filesnew
	output:
	awk: cmd. line:2: fatal: cannot open file `filesnew/md5' for reading
	(No such file or directory)
	*** Error code 2

	Stop.

	This output is confusing BTW because I know ./filesnew/md5 exists
