What command-line utilities are available for manipulating the symlink

Searching for framework and version in Apple's developer site led me
almost immediately to this:
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/
BPFrameworks/Concepts/VersionInformation.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/

You should probably at least skim the whole document: <http://
developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/BPFrameworks/
Frameworks.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/10000183>
It's an easy read. What it boils down to, though, is that at the very
worst you should only ever have to manipulate a single link when
adding versions - the one named "Current." If you try to do any more
than that, you're going to be fighting the OS.
