Since the 'etcupdate' attempt had as its current directory the
RELEASEDIR/binary/sets directory, I found zero-length core files for
the various userland programs that were being used (and segfaulting):

cat.core
cmp.core
cp.core
dirname.core
grep.core
ident.core
md5.core
mkdir.core
rm.core
sed.core
sh.core
sort.core
stat.core
sysctl.core
uname.core

Thanks for looking at this.
