Apart from the other suggested solutions:  At the beginning of the
installworld, make stashes a selection of utilities (including
mtree) into a temporary directory (${INSTALLTMP} in Makefile.inc1).
The exact name varies but is something like /tmp/install.XXXXXXXX
If you haven't lost the directory from the first installworld, you can
always copy mtree (any any other over-written utilities) back where
they started.
