New Revision: 284010
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/284010

Log:
  Work around a potential bug in pw(8) when '-m' is specified.
  According to the manual page, '-m' should create the user home
  directory, however rigorous testing suggests it does not, and
  it is unclear if this is an implementation or expectation issue.
