We need to fix the FileDirectory logic for 'default', *not* change the API.

I have worked in this area some, but I don't have a MacOS Classic environment 
to test with. (Well, maybe I do on the ancient Powerbook; does the 9.2 that 
comes with Mac OS/X work OK if you boot from it?).

There has been long discussion (and many 'fixes') about the meaning and 
interpretation of relative paths on the Mac.

Please, let's get this logic working right rather than changing the usage!
