mergemaster barf

[Mike Lempriere]

upgrading 5-stable (was at 5.5) to 6-stable, in preparation for 6-stable 
to 7-stable.
No problems with cvsup, make buildworld, make buildkernel, mergemaster -p.
make installkernel, boot to single user, then mergemaster -- blammo:

Stop in /usr/src/etc.

I've checked, the directory is there (/var/tmp/temproot/etc) however the 
file (master.passwd) is not.

Any suggestions anyone?  Thanks!
