Since upgrading to Leopard, Adobe GoLive 6 crashes much more
frequently than it did.
My Golive CS2 would crash more often if Photoshop CS2 was also open
but was stable when running by itself (other apps could be open but
not PS CS2). This is on Tiger.
If all you need it for is the link management and you don't want to
pony up dough then you might experiment to see if it will fly if it
is the only thing open. Closing down some apps for a few minutes
seems painless enough to me.
The Golive 9 is (seemingly) 99% the same as the CS2 version. The DW
CS3 tryout does seem to have enough lights and whistles to get me to
spend the dough as it will play Flash in the editor and do a lot of
other time saving things. But it too crashes on Tiger (from time to
time). So new version does not = high stability (necessarily).

Greg could also go to eBay and upgrade to CS2 to save money if he is
on a budget. Using AuctionSieve and Jbidwatcher, he could bide his
time and capture an agreeable auction. Or he could partition his
Mac's hard drive, reinstall Tiger and run Golive6 if that's his
passion with a reboot. For my work system (PB G4/867), I have two 80
Gb partitions, one for Tiger and one for Leopard. They reference the
same documents folder via a symlink, as I have Photoshop 7 and similar
issues. But since the vast majority of my image work is done in
GraphicConverter, I don't reboot in Tiger often and PS7 is the only
app that got left behind in the Leopard migration.
An added bonus to moving to CS2 is that menumachine continues to
work. I don't know if that product works in CS3 or not, but I'm not
willing to give Adobe the cash to find out. A pseudo-monopoly on
graphics packages and pricing to match doesn't mean Adobe should be
sued, but that we should support functional shareware alternatives.
And while Adobe may be 'bad' with regard to their pricing, they are
very consumer-friendly when it comes to license transfer --- far more
so than the likes of Quark or some other publishers. Buying a used
copy of CS2 will save Greg money and recycle a legit version from
someone who no longer wants/needs it. Adobe's policy on this is
refreshingly realistic.
As others have mentioned, rather than have this 'feature' added into
BBEdit (a text editor, not intended as a Finder file replacement
tool), there are multiple ways to easily restructure a collection of
web files and folders. Using the Finder to relocate the folder
itself, and absolute URL hrefs, and find/replace solves the problem
nearly as quickly as GoLive. Coding websites to use tools such as php
includes makes for one-stop editing, as well.
Hope that sparks some ideas for you, Greg.
