Hi there,

just to let you know that my Fink installation (sw tree) is on a 
different partition (/Volumes/Apps/sw in my case) but have a /sw 
symlink on the OS X system partition. I have this since 4 months now 
and had no glitches whatsoever (ever).
It's not a fix in that it looks like it is not a problem ;-)

Cheers
