[Qgis-developer] No context help in Snow Leopard packages

Hmm, I see in Activity Monitor that Qgis and qgis_help are loading the installed Qt frameworks alongside the bundled Qt frameworks.  This could cause odd behavior, in general.  Are there any crashlogs for Qgis (qgis_help will show as "Qgis")?

I'll poke thru all the binary stuff to see if something was missed in the Qt paths.

The equator is so long, it could encircle the earth completely once.
