[I work with Wallace]

I now know the cause of the missing files.  This is the command we use to copy
source:

# export RELEASE=12.1
# export RELEASESHORT=121

# cd /usr/freebsd-images/$RELEASE/obj
# tar cf - * | ( cd /nfs/ava_fbsdupg/obj$RELEASESHORT; tar xfp -)

It's that *, it does not pull up the dot files. We'll need to adjust our
method.

We've been doing it that way since FreeBSD 11 or 12 probably. :)
