OS X 10.4.8, so yes.  There were also many more hard-links in  
the .deb that were created successfully without my intervention.

Yes, just ~/test.  By the way, note that:

ls -l /Volumes/
total 12
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root     admin    1 Jan  4 15:02 disk -> /
lrwxr-xr-x 1 kocolosk admin   22 Jan  4 19:13 star1.lns.mit.edu -> / 
Users/kocolosk/Xgrid/
...

I know, it looks suspicious.  The real star1.lns.mit.edu is an NFS  
server running Scientific Linux, and of course I can't install Fink  
directly on it from my Mac without some serious security issues (and  
even then I think I would probably run into buildlock problems).  The  
workaround I've been using is to rsync this local install to the real  
server after I'm done.  The path stays the same, so all the .dylibs  
are happy.
