I don't use mergemaster(8), so I still use the old good way to
update /etc, etc.:

	dir=3D/var/tmp/`date +%Y%m%d`
	mkdir -p ${dir}
	cd /usr/src/etc
	make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=3D${dir}
	make distribution DESTDIR=3D${dir}

By saving the previous contents of /var/tmp/<some_date>, and
comparing it with the current one, I update my /etc.
