This is the correct remedy.

In Panda IMAP, I created a new "oss" port that reflects this change.  I 
think that re-alpine may have done the same thing, with some extra rules 
in the Alpine configure script to detect this difference.

I don't know which is more annoying: Apple picking an incompatible 
location to begin with, or changing it to create an incompatibility 
between Snow Leopard and all prior versions.
