Don't worry, I've just discovered that by mistake, I haven't created  
an mtree directory and xinstall didn't complain.
I think they are created before the destroot stage and that these  
that remain empty after are deleted in destroot_finish.

I think there are only manpages.
And other common things, like 0755 for executable and folders. This  
kind of thing.
