Possible patch, but fixing the wrong issue IMHO

I verified this patch works, for both the components directory issue and bug 530196 (tested after reverting it, too).

So the problem is that the normalization is done on the nsIFile contained in the components array, and this breaks some other code using this array.

Now, as I said in comment #2, I think the real issue is that of nsIFile.equals and should be fixed there. Patches for bug 530196 and bug 491245 should be reverted.

I can provide a patch for Unix. I guess the same logic would work on OSX.
