Thanks, that worked fine for me with 1.10rc2.

With the .dmg offering, I thought that it would contain a self-installer (as
is the case for some Windows distributions), but it wasn't the case when I
unpacked the 1.10rc1 last time. So, in effect, I am OK with it. The only
thing I would say is that, from what I remember, the files were 'buried'
under a few layers of folders. If anything, I would have them under the
'root' folder, but it's not critical and maybe you have changed things with
1.10rc2 (I should be able to find out tonight when I am back home).
