>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	2-1-stable sup'd over the weekend 9/10 March

>Description:

        When 'make install'ing in /usr/src/share/examples, multiple errors
        of the type

            install: mkstemp: /usr/share/examples/etc for 
            /usr/share/examples/etc/README.examples: No such file or directory
  
        (long line broken) are generated.

        Only occurs if the variable SHARED is set to 'copies'. This is the
        default in the supplied makefile. As far as I can tell, 'install'
	is objecting because the directories to install to do not exist.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install 2.1.0-RELEASE
        Sup -stable on top of it
        Do a 'make world' (or anything else that will cause 'make install'
        to be run in /usr/src/share/examples. 

>Fix:
        
        Set the variable SHARED to 'symlinks' (if that works for you), 
        otherwise, apply this patch, which creates the directories first.
