Oh, god, yes, I saw that, and assumed it was an earlier cut.

I suppose we could do it that way wrapped in an 'if' statement so it
only runs on updates; seems reasonable to assume bash is available for
an update transaction?

Doesn't seem to work. Seems like it's just ignored: if I set it and move
tiny_mce/ away, no tinymce. If I leave it set but also put the tiny_mce
directory in place on the filesystem (by symlink or not), tinymce works.
I don't actually have any idea whether PHP is supposed to respect the
Apache aliases or whether it's looking at the 'real' filesystem, but it
seems to be b).
