I've been using this method, too. The one thing I'd add is that these steps
also need to be performed for the p/48 directory, or you risk deleting some or
all of the 48-segment primitives.
It's been years since I've had a copy of the 'pro' version of Stuffit, so I'm
not sure what additional extraction options that would afford. However, the
command line unzip utility (available via Fink) should do this with something
like 'unzip -f lcad0303.zip -d ~/library/ldraw'.
