duh!
Sorry about that, I've been using DR2 recently and forgot about \Apple
On MXS (NEXT_ROOT) maps to /
On YB (NEXT_ROOT) maps to [drive letter]:\Apple
The problem here is that [drive letter]:\Apple\Library & Developer are really
equivalent to /System/Library /System/Developer on MXS which should not be
touched. What Apple should have done is put [drive
letter]:\Apple\System\Library & Developer and it would map nicely.
So ... anything done by Apple should go in [drive letter]:\Apple\Library &
Developer (/System/Library & Developer on MXS) and anything anyone else
(including yourself) does should go into [drive letter]:\Apple\Local\Library &
Developer (/Local/Library & Developer on MXS).
geez ... I hope I haven't confused even more ...
