I am wanting to install Oroborosx v.0.8.5 on a re-imaged 10.2.3.  It has

"private" copy is included in Oroborosx.  Should I install XDarwin
seperately?  If not, what are the steps to extract/install the private
copy?
I believe that when you instal XFree86, the installer puts the XDarwin application in your /Applications directory. If all you want to do is run OrobosOSX, you can safely delete this stand-alone XDarwin.app.
True. OTOH, you need all the rest of a complete xfree86 installation, either from XonX (plus Fink's system-xfree86) or from Fink (all 4 xfree86-* packages). This takes 100MB of your disk space anyway.

You gain less than 4MB from deleting /Applications/XDarwin.app, so it's not worth the trouble. It doesn't interfere with OroborOSX's private copy that you don't normally see since it's inside the OroborOSX-*.app bundle.
