For those who use Fink and had modified /.hidden so that Fink's /sw folder wasn't visible in the Finder, you'll probably have noticed that /.hidden is gone in 10.4.
Actually, this signals good things. The 'invisible' attribute on files is properly respected by the Finder again. So to make /sw (or any folder) vanish, simply install the Developer Tools, open the Terminal, and do this:
/Developer/Tools/SetFile -a V /sw
And just like that, /sw is invisible.
