New frameworks generally live in /Library/Frameworks, although I expect
that ~/Library/Frameworks is a possibility too. Multiple versions of
Sage wouldn't be a problem. Upgrading can keep the previous version
around and set new symlinks to point to the Current version. This  
approach
is there because it allows one app build against a specific version to
still work when updated. Deleting old versions is fine, deleting the
most recent version would require fixing the Current symlinks.

Cheers,

Tim.
