>Description:

	When you run etcupdate(8) after updating the system from 
	e.g. netbsd-3 to current, it offers to run mtree because of
	newly-created directories. Unfortunately, that fails

Remove /tmp/temproot? (y/[n]) 
*** Keeping /tmp/temproot
You have created new directories. Run mtree to set permissions? (y/[n]) y
mtree: unknown user `_rwhod'
mtree: failed at line 1084 of the specification

	because after adding the new user _rwhod, the /etc/{,s}pwd.db
	databases have not yet been updated.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Update a release installation to -current, then run etcupdate.

>Fix:
	Move the mtree run behind the update of /etc/{,s}pwd.db.
