Mac programs expect to be able to write to the system folder, but due
to a botch on our part, the files in
"/usr/local/lib/executor/ExecutorVolume/System Folder" are not
necessarily writeable by the user running Executor.  I think our
browser crashes if it doesn't have write permission.  The fix is to
make those files writeable.

Sorry about this; it slipped through the cracks.
