During a snapshot upgrade for both i386 and amd64

the option to run sysmerge at the end doesn't work:
Merge the new etc/xetc install sets using sysmerge(8)? [no] yes
ftp: Can't open file ///mnt2/4.9/amd64/etc49.tgz: No such file or
directory
ftp: Can't open file ///mnt2/4.9/amd64/xetc49.tgz: No such file or
directory
*** ERROR: please specify a valid path to src or (x)etcXX.tgz
usage: sysmerge [-bd] [-s [src | etcXX.tgz]] [-x xetcXX.tgz]
I briefly looked at the install scripts in src/distrib/miniroot/ and tried to
understand them.
AFIACT the cd is unmounted from /mnt2/ before sysmerge is run.
See src/distrib/miniroot/install.sub: the function install_sets() seems to
unmount /mnt2/ after installing the sets and before returning from that
function.
If I'm not mistaken the idea is to copy the (x)etc49.tgz sets to /mnt/tmp/.
Maybe it's an option to do that in the install_files() phase. If the user
chooses to not run sysmerge, those files will be cleaned upon reboot anyway,
won't they ?
