Auditdistd user question

Hello there and please excuse my harshness.

I just installed 9.1, and I tried to set up poudriere with 9/stable.
It took a lot of time compiling kernel and world, and after this it all
failed with message about missing auditdistd user.
I just can't find words.
Why this user presence not checked during buildworld at least? Or by just
invoking updated Makefile? If there any need to build world without install
it, wouldn't be better make some conditional flag,
like BUILD_WITHOUT_AUDITDISTD, instead of silent building and failing after
that at install stage.
Of course, in current way just "buildworld" not broken, but "buildworld
installworld" is.
This looks like like carefully hidden trap, from someone with specific
sense of humor.
Or am I missing something, and this is not terribly wrong?
