I/We considered this hack to deal with the Mac OS X problem (after all,
transarc AFS had it for NeXTStep.), but it's insufficient. Not only does
the finder stat the mountpoint to see if it's a directory, but once it
discovers that it is, it reads it to see if it contains a "Contents"
directory (which identifies whether or not it is an Apple/NeXT bundle)
