It does help, thanks. I'm surprised there's no script (or option to 
build-script) to do this automatically. Seems like a reasonable thing to want 
to do upon occasion.

Also, I assume that those of us who aren't at Apple probably don't want to be 
using /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/ as our install 
dir, but instead /Library/Developer/Toolchains/ like where the snapshot 
installs.
