One thing that occurs to me is that I could possibly do better with
the ownership of /tmp and its contents, which the BOM has as fritza/
wheel (where fritza is the name of my account, user 501, and wheel
is group 80). One of the machines on which I'm seeing the failure
is the one on which fritza and wheel really do exist. Advice?
I did make the experiment of ensuring that all of my /private tree
was owned by root/admin:
if [[ -d "./root/private" ]] ; then \
chmod -R a+rwX ./root/private; \
chown -R root:admin ./root/private; \
fi

This had no effect. The _FFExtensions directory is not installed.
I'd be grateful for some direction. I'm not sure where I should be
looking.
