Heck, I'm sorry -- that's pre-Jaguar. Clearly X.2 made changes.

Look for a file in the top level of the System Folder named "Classic 
Support UI". I believe that's what replaced uiHelper. There's another 
file in the System Folder called, simply, "Classic", and that will at 
least tell you you're on a system running X.

I'm not sure I'd advise that. You can get invisible file listings using 
the term window; for instance, if you open the terminal and do

   cd /

to change to the root directory, then do

   ls -a

you'll see more files than you normally do when you just to 'ls', and 
considerably more than if you open your drive in the Finder. Those 
extra files are the 'hidden' ones.

Generally if a system is hiding a file it's for a fairly good reason. ;)
