So looks like the static substitution does work out of the box for 10.3 
but the variable substitution does not.  Means I can map PrimaryGroupId 
(usually gidNumber query) to #501 and it works but I can not map 
NFSHomeDirectory to #/tmp/$uid$ as per 
http://www.macosxlabs.org/documentation/cookbooks/wildcard.html and have 
it work.  Those folks with 10.2 and Dan's replacement plugin should be 
able to make this work.
