The files in /.DocumentRevisions-V100 are special and should
not be touched or deleted in 10.6. Do not just go and delete
them as you will corrupt the version history in 10.7.
It's best if your software just stays out of the folder in
10.6 since the files in there can not be understood by the
older version of the OS.
