Hmmm... is there a good reason that Sparkle should not hardcode the  
path to hdiutil?  I'm thinking this would solve PATH problems like  
this.  A user could install a non-Apple compatible program called  
"hdiutil" in their path and break Sparkle, too.  This somehow seems  
wrong.  I can't see Apple moving it out of /usr/bin.
