[OS X TeX] Trouble accessing beamer docs

I think there was an extensive discussion of this right when TL 2007  
came out. I recall that Victor Ivrii had written a perl script (?) to  
correct various documentation locations.

But maybe that's not the problem here, as it seems to be simply be a  
matter of the name of the argument for "texdoc" Strangely, it doesn't  
seem to be the name of the package, as it seems that it should be.
