[TxMt] Permission denied when creating the "mate" link

[Luís Bruno]

Howdy,

I'm evaluating build r790 and chose to create the "mate" link in 
~/Applications, which is already in my path when I open Terminal.app.

However, TextMate somehow requested admin privileges; I _cancelled_ and 
I got back an error message: "Creating the link “/bin/mate” failed with 
the following reason: Permission denied".

Am I expecting the wrong thing?

Thanks,
