>Description:
Mergemaster to 4.5-STABLE from 4.3-RELEASE fails:
--8<--
[...]
mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.var.dist -p /var/tmp/temproot/var
mtree: line 63: unknown user smmsp
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/etc.

  *** FATAL ERROR: Cannot 'cd' to /usr/src/etc and install files to the
      temproot environment
--8<--

And similarly for group smmsp.

This is due to the fact that smmsp did not exist in passwd and group in
4.3-RELEASE yet.     
>How-To-Repeat:
See above.
>Fix:
Workaround: insert smmsp into passwd with vipw, and to group via editing.
