System: NetBSD atomic.clock.org 1.2G NetBSD 1.2G (ATOMIC) #64: Tue Aug 19 07:36:24 PDT 1997 root@atomic.clock.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc/compile/ATOMIC sparc


>Description:
	make snapshot fails because the required README files have been
	removed from the repository. They need to be replaced, or the
	requirement for them removed. Both Sun 3 and SPARC fail this way.
>How-To-Repeat:
	cd /usr/src/etc
	make snapshot
	[lots of stuff elided - eef]
	cp -p /usr/src/etc/etc.sun3/README /altroot/snapshot/README
	cp: /usr/src/etc/etc.sun3/README: No such file or directory
	*** Error code 1
>Fix:
	1. commit new README files
	or
	2. change Makefile not to require README file
