So apparently the fact that they have links is relevant and the
problem is fallout from this commit to bsd.links.mk
revision 1.34
date: 2009年04月10日 20:16:12 +0400; author: apb; state: Exp; lines: +14 -3;
Add LINKSOWN, LINKSGRP, and LINKSMODE variables for use by bsd.links.mk
when installing hard links. They have no effect except when using a
metalog, in which case the information is added to the metalog. In
the future, these variables may be replaced by a method for explicitly
recording hard links in a metadata log.
Also change a few things that called ${INSTALL_LINK} without going
through bsd.links.mk.
Reviewed by perry and joerg. This should fix PR 24457 and PR 41155.
etc/root/Makefile has FILESMODE=644 but then we overide it when
creating the links with LINKSMODE that is 444 by default.
