    Hello. I have removed the uucp user from my OpenBSD
    system because I don't use it.

    I recently did a full refresh and rebuild of the
    /usr/src tree according to the instructions in
    release (8).

    When I did a 'make build', it chugged along fine
    (for a looooong time on this slow box) and then
    aborted with the following error:

    install -c -s -o uucp -g bin -m 555 uuchk /usr/libexec/uucp
    install: unknown user uucp
    *** Error code 67

    I realize I can do a 'make -k' to continue in the
    face of errors, but I don't want to ignore all errors --
    I just want to skip the installation of uucp related
    files.

    What's the best way to achieve this goal? I would like
    to avoid having to do a lot of merging/maintenance
    each time I refresh/build.

    Thanks,
            Chad Loder
