The problem is that that somewhat breaks patch(1), it still works but spills a bunch of errors because it can't chmod any files, and it shows up as created by none. Also if you have a sources/contrib account you need to modify your local 9fs to remove the -n. Maybe we should add a sourcesauth entry to 9fs? uriel
