I tried to reproduce their problem for over a couple of weeks with no success, until I finally made the 600 Km. trip to their office, and found out that their local Unix guru (but Mac OS X newbie) had formatted his hard drive as UFS - and named it "/", to compound the problem... ("You mean this _isn't_ UNIX???")

I think it is common for UFS volumes to be named "/" (I did have my machine return from Apple Care with an HFS root volume named "\" which made me shudder from DOS related memories).

I would file a bug about requiring extensions.

I'm curious if you are running into a case sensitivity bug in Cocoa; maybe it is searching for someImage.PNG -- I'm too lazy to check this myself, mostly because I don't have UFS available to actually check.
