I've found the problem thanks to misc/177055. It is that mergemaster (and etcupdate) set MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX to something in their temporary directory and thus deprive themselves of bootstrap tools. Unfortunately, I don't see a trivial fix so I've backed this out for now and will work on this in HEAD. -- Brooks
