>Description:
	While chrooted sandboxes are great for containing bulk builds
so they don't affect the live system, to be useful they need to
reflect the minimum necessary subset of a live system.  In this case,
there are two elements that are missing from the subset constructed by
mksandbox.  The first is /var/spool/mqueue, which is required for the
bulk build process to queue its report for mailing.  The second is
that some packages (e.g., at least x11/kdebase) specifically test for
/var/run/utmp in order to add capabilities during compilation.  This
is part of the live system, so it seems this test should be successful
within the chroot environment.
>How-To-Repeat:
	1. create a sandbox using mksandbox
	2. chroot to the sandbox
	3. launch a bulk build
	4. observe the following errors:
	   - x11/kdebase @ i386> checking for utmp file... no
	   - Bulk build ended: Thu Apr 10 14:29:57 GMT 2003
	     can not chdir(/var/spool/mqueue): No such file or directory

>Fix:
