--- Comment #1 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
The last one is "expected"; the symlink exists so that packages can hook up
their test suites without installing outside of /usr/local, but installworld
doesn't create subdirs under /usr/local.

The first one is also somewhat expected, /var/run/os-release is populated
during boot.

The second one seems a bit dubious, but the symlink works on an installed
system.  I'm not sure what these files in lib/libxo/encoder are for - perhaps
Phil could shed some light here?
