The macports repo wasn't working for this package--kept hanging on the rsync fetch--so I'm very grateful for this! Thanks so much for this package!

Apple's installers store *each* hard link as the entire file, so you get a lot of duplicated files. When installed, it should only take up as much space as the single binary. These links could be installed by, say, a post-install script, but I don't care enough, and the bandwidth isn't a problem.

That is, if it's just compiled code you're dealing with, send that; if you can reason about it with the Expression API, do that. Otherwise, SOL.

Trying to call GetMethodBody() on the compiled delegate throws a 'Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.' exception.
