Just pass -n along to the main make build?

Done. I'm committing this now

Also, build.sh should check the paths and not remove if the path resolves

I'm looking into this today. Mainly the idea is to have a passwd/group option
and then the etc/Makefile would pass ${.CURDIR}/master.passwd along to
mtree.
