MacOS isn't really a "FreeBSD variant."  It's a hacked up Mach  
microkernel with a 4.4 BSD server on top of it that Apple's tried to  
make look as much like FreeBSD as possible.  There's some code sharing  
there, but the relationship to FreeBSD is shaky at best.  For example,  
the threading models are completely different because Mach has a  
native idea of threads that is much different than FreeBSD.

rehash is a csh thing (which means tcsh too).  Bourne and Korn shell  
to my knowledge never had a cache that needed to be rebuilt.

Doesn't Xastir use libcurl instead of the curl command if it's been  
compiled in?  This would make the paths irrelevant.
