The install ISOs seem to be generated from
[src]/distrib/common/Makefile.image ; its `makefs` call already has
"-N ${NETBSDSRCDIR}/etc".
For example:
root@lili:/var/cache/laminar# ./compare_tarballs.sh {,n}netbsd-arc-mipsel-rel.tar.gz

(...comparing an arc/mipsel build, Linux left, NetBSD right.)
Differences in the ISO image are like this:
-0000a130: 0000 0003 e603 0000 0000 03e6 e603 0000 ................
+0000a130: 0000 0003 0000 0000 0000 0000 e603 0000 ................
(several others as well)
0x03e6 = 998, which is the UID/GIT the Linux (Docker) based builds are
running as. From looking at the code, I think that it's just keeping
numeric owner information from a stat/lstat call IFF there isn't an
override in the manifest. I don't think it's resolving names, esp. not
for UID numbers like 998 which are just from the building user, with
IMHO no additional code mapping any non-zero UID to zero (or any
specific other value.) I can give a different -N a try, but I doubt
it'll fix the issue.
