For (font) MAP files it's easy, either private

        kpsewhich -show-path=.map -engine=xetex | tr : '\n' | grep $USER | sort

or for the system

        kpsewhich -show-path=.map -engine=xetex | tr : '\n' | grep texmf-local 
| sort

(to be executed on a command line). TEC files are not yet found by kpsewhich. 
Them and their text version MAP files are mostly stored under 
/usr/local/texlive/2011/texmf-dist/fonts/misc/xetex/fontmapping and then some 
subdirectory. So you could shoose

        ~/Library/texmf/fonts/misc/xetex/fontmapping/<mine>

or

        /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/fonts/misc/xetex/fontmapping/<mine>

If you choose to install in the system's local area you need to use elevated 
privileges (sudo) and finish with

        sudo texhash /usr/local/texlive/texmf-local
