TeX Live or MacTeX are standards. There is no need to install an extra TeX 
distribution, as for example MacPorts is doing.

My workaround is to create sym-links in /usr/local/teTeX/bin:

        total 16
        lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  39 11 Sep 12:36 universal-darwin -> 
../../texlive/2011/bin/universal-darwin
        lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  36 11 Sep 12:36 x86_64-darwin -> 
../../texlive/2011/bin/x86_64-darwin

This seemed to have worked on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (PPC), where the sym-links 
pointed to TeX Line 2008 (I had "compacted" the old distributions by using hard 
links for identical files, which saved many GB).


 i      system-tetex    20071003-2      Placeholder package for manually 
installed teTeX, gwTeX, or TeX Live
 p      tetex-base              [virtual package]
 p      tetex-macosx            [virtual package]
 p      tetex-texmf             [virtual package]

To me it looks as if everything is there. Rebuilding system-tetex shows full 
success, no errors, no warnings. But there is a hint: 
/usr/local/gwTeX/bin/`uname -p`-apple-darwin-current/mktexlsr. So, all I need 
in /usr/local/teTeX/bin is a sym-link i386-apple-darwin-current! (I actually 
had powerpc-apple-darwin-current -> 
/usr/local/texlive/2008/bin/universal-darwin and did not use the "-current" 
addition used in teTeX. This piece, and i386, was missing!)
