I think it'd be nice if it didn't.  Files that don't contain anything
just make for mergemaster annoyance.

It's intentional.  Since everything was commented out examples and not
actual defaults, it was moved to /usr/share/examples/etc.

sysctl.conf is also missing.  If its not there, it doesn't get 
parsed.  You only need make.conf if you wish to put stuff in there.  
same with rc.conf, except everyone puts something in rc.conf
