The readline egg does not install on OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) due to a mismatch between the readline library that ships with the base OS X system (under /usr) and what the egg's expecting. I suspect, but have not verified, that OS X is shipping a much older version of readline. Fortunately, the

Seems like you already have a substantial broken egg problem with Chicken 4 already. You sure you want to break yet more eggs? Do you have the ability to fix all the eggs? If so I think you should consider that as part of this re-org. I also dislike 'Utils'; that's awfully generic.
