They may not have created in on purpose.  Paul Dokas, who submitted
PR #136447, tells me:

| Yup, there it is:
| 
|   % ls -al /nonexistent
|   lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  15 Jun  8 08:28 /nonexistent@ -> usr/nonexistent
| 
|   % ls -al /usr/nonexistent/
|   total 4
|   drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel  512 Jun  8 08:28 ./
|   drwxr-xr-x  19 root  wheel  512 Jun  8 08:28 ../
| 
| Given the timestamp, I'm pretty sure that these were created when I last
| updated some ports.  One of them must have created both the symlink and
| the directory.  I definitely didn't make them myself.  Very odd...

(Back in June, Fabiano Sidler also reported the same weird audio/flac
build failure to me.  In retrospect, it must have been caused by
an existing /nonexistent, too.)
