 Good catch!
 
 This only should happen if installing from source (i.e. sets should
 provide the proper etc/motd file).
 
 postinstall(8) has not been updated to varying motd sources depending
 on beta/current/... state of the source.
 
 Maybe if "${SRC_DIR}/etc/motd" does not exist, assume we have a full source
 environment and proper tools available and do
 
   cd "${SRC_DIR}/etc/" && ${MAKE} -v MOTD_SOURCE
 
 to get the proper name?
