I didn't even think of that.  You are correct, knowing that you are on 
Mac OS X actually doesn't fix the problem.  We need to manually check 
to see if they are the same file.  My bug probably should be updated to 
take this into account.

I will dig around a bit in corlib to see if there is any way for us to 
programmatically determine if the files are the same.
