    I've done some digging in the source tree and this seems like a
potentially workable solution for the issue reported -- in part
because auditdistd is only present in BSD.var.dist, /etc/rc.d/var runs
BSD.var.dist at boot, etc:

Index: etc/Makefile

                -p ${DESTDIR}/usr/include

    I'm running a build still to confirm this.
    I'll look into a more generic solution, but this should get people
past r243752 without having to install a master.passwd file everywhere
with auditdistd in it. A better solution would potentially be to delay
processing the mtree files until later and run it via another script
which could handle sequencing things properly (either directly via
mtree, or better, via a make target). I have other ideas for this but
I need to sleep on them because they might not seem workable later.
Thanks,
