 Sets should be created with with commands like this:
 
        cd ${SRCDIR}/distrib/sets
        ${TOOLDIR}/bin/nbmake-${MACHINE} makesrctars
 
 That will pass MTREE=${TOOL_MTREE} through the environment.  If you
 don't do that, then you get whatever mtree happens to be in your PATH,
 and presumably that doesn't support the "-S" option.
 
 Since the problem is actually in the autobuild scripts, perhaps somebody
 from the releng team can make appropriate changes.
