I had to make two changes to get RT working on FreeBSD. The first is
because there is no “root” group, and the second because copy without
the trailing / creates the directory “generic_templates” in the
destination, also, the directory is created with the same permissions as
the source (i.e. read-only) hence the mkdir, otherwise it fails (note
that the directory ends up read-only anwyay).

Apart from that, it seems pretty nice - I’m looking forward to RT 2,
though - I’m guessing that isn’t stable enough to really use yet, is it?
Cheers,
Ben.
